Cutter — skip the silence

By: Cutter Add-on
Fast-forwards silent and low-volume parts of any video. Basic skip runs locally; smart trim on YouTube is an opt-in Pro feature.

Features & Capabilities

Cutter fast-forwards silent and low-volume parts of any HTML5 video in real time — speech stays at 1×, quiet stretches fly by. Entirely in your browser, no account needed. Perfect for lectures, talks, streams and online courses.

HOW IT WORKS Cutter attaches a Web Audio API analyser to any <video> element on the page. When the sound drops below your threshold, playback speeds up (2×–8×, adjustable). The moment someone speaks, it snaps back to 1×. No pre-processing, no waiting, no data sent anywhere.

WHAT'S FREE • Real-time silence skipping on any site with HTML5 video. • Adjustable skip speed and sensitivity (dB threshold). • "Skip silence fully" toggle. • Fully local — your video and audio never leave your device. • Works in Chrome, Chromium, Yandex Browser and Firefox. • No account required.

WHAT PRO ADDS (coming soon) • Smart trim on YouTube: our server analyses a clip once and returns a "speed map" that physically cuts silence out — not just speeds it up. • Per-site profiles, filler-word detection, time-saved stats.

PRIVACY For the basic skip Cutter sends nothing anywhere. For the optional Pro smart-trim on YouTube, only the public YouTube video ID is sent — never your audio or video data. Full policy: https://cutter.nektonsoft.ru/privacy
