Competitor pricing checked on their own pages on 14 August 2026: Opus Clip Starter $15/mo, monthly only. Eklipse publishes no price and shows it at checkout, and its free clipping tier ended in June 2026. Submagic Starter $12 per member per month billed yearly, with long-video clipping sold as a separate add-on. Prices move, so check before you buy. "Not verified" means we could not confirm it on the vendor’s own page, so we left it rather than guess.

02 · Capabilities

Built for creators
who play.

If it doesn't cut edit time, fix clip sameness, or get you to post faster, it didn't make the build.

Payoff-First Ranking
Doesn’t stop at the loud part. It checks whether the loud part turns into a clutch, a throw, a reversal, or a punchline.
No Supported-Games List
No supported-games list, and nothing to select. It looks for what makes a moment worth posting in any game: something builds, something happens, it lands.
Stream Densifier
Drop a 3-hour session. Get back the 8 minutes with actual posting potential. Dead air goes out first.
100% Offline
Runs entirely on your machine. No cloud, no API keys, no subscriptions, no data leaving your PC.
Smart Subtitles
5 built-in styles: Clean, Bold, Punch, Tactical, Streamer. Burned into video or exported as SRT/VTT. Synced to speech.
Hook & Copy Generation
Titles, hooks, captions, and CTAs per clip. So when the cut is done, you’re not staring at the title box for 20 minutes.

05 · Frequently Asked

Straight
answers.

The ones we get most. Anything else → mail@cutbench.com.

Will CutBench become a subscription later?

No. Buy once, use it as long as you want.

Does it upload my footage anywhere?

No. Source files never leave your PC. The models ship inside the build, so nothing downloads on first run. Internet is used only if you click Publish.

Do I need a GPU? Which one?

NVIDIA only. 6 GB+ VRAM and CUDA required. AMD and Intel Arc are not supported. Without a supported card the whole analysis falls back to the processor, below spec and several times slower, so plan for overnight runs rather than same-day ones.

Does it run on macOS or Linux?

No. Windows 10/11 only. Mac and Linux ports are not on the roadmap. Its supported spec is an NVIDIA GPU; without one it runs on the CPU, several times slower.

How long does a 3-hour session take?

2 to 5 hours on an RTX 3060-class GPU. Overnight batch: drop a session before bed, review clips in the morning.

How much disk space does it need?

About 30 GB free SSD, the same figure as the Steam listing. The models ship inside the build, so nothing large downloads on first run.

Can it publish to TikTok and YouTube directly?

YouTube Shorts, yes: one click, scheduled, via the official Data API. TikTok goes to your drafts through the official Content Posting API, and you post it from the TikTok app.

What’s the refund policy?

Steam handles it: request a refund through Steam within 14 days of purchase and under 2 hours of use. Check the system requirements before you buy.

What does CutBench not do?

Not real-time. Not a manual editor (you approve, not arrange). Not a voice changer / avatar / FX pack. Not on AMD or Intel Arc. Not on Mac or Linux.

What happens if I lose my licence?

There is no licence file to lose. The build is tied to your Steam account, so reinstalling from your Steam library restores it.
