Frequently Asked Questions
How does transcript-based editing work?
Rescript runs OpenAI's Whisper model locally in your browser to transcribe your audio/video with exact word-level timestamps. When you delete words or sentences in the text editor, the video timeline automatically trims those parts out.
Do my video or audio files get uploaded to the cloud?
No. Everything runs 100% locally on your computer using WebGPU and WebAssembly. Your media files and transcripts never leave your browser.
Can I export to DaVinci Resolve or Premiere Pro?
Yes! You can export your rough cut as an NLE timeline (FCPXML / Premiere XML / AAF) to finish color grading and sound design in your favorite editor.
What formats can I edit?
You can load and edit MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, and FLAC files.
