Hi HN! SavvyCut is a browser based video cutting tool that automatically cuts out non-speech parts of videos and creates jump cuts. This can be quite a time saver for content creators that spend a lot of time manually trimming their videos in more complex video editors. It preserves both your privacy and your bandwidth by running locally in the browser using WebAssembly without uploading anything to cloud servers. It turns out that for many use cases (vloggers doing stuff while talking / gaming / outdoor noise) a simple volume threshold is not sufficient, so it uses an ML based approach to detect speech.
