Cut the quiet pauses out of a talking-head video, a lesson, a podcast or a voice recording in one go. The tool listens to the sound, marks every pause, and you see what will be cut before you save. Free, no upload, no watermark.
Loading the tool...
Choose or drop your video or audio file.
Set how quiet a pause is and how long it must be. The timeline shows the parts that will be cut.
Press Remove silence and download the shorter file.
Videos with subtitles are watched longer and found more often. Our AI tools write, translate and burn them for you. Free minutes to start, no credit card.
It measures how loud the sound is every 10 milliseconds. Where the sound stays below the level you set for longer than the minimum pause, that part is cut. A short margin is kept on both sides so words are not clipped.
Start with the defaults (quieter than -40 dB for at least 0.6 seconds). If breaths or room noise are left in, raise the level to -35 dB. If the ends of words get cut, lower it to -45 dB or make the margin longer.
Yes, because the cuts can fall between key frames, the picture is encoded again with your device's hardware encoder at high quality. Audio files are saved as M4A.
Not yet: it cuts pauses, not filler words. To find filler words, make a transcript with our AI subtitle generator and edit it in Subtitle Studio.
No. The video is read and processed by your own browser, with your computer or phone doing the work. Nothing is sent to our servers, so it is safe for private videos too.
Chrome, Edge, Opera and Brave (version 94 or newer), Safari 16.4 or newer, and Firefox 130 or newer, on a computer or a phone. A computer is much faster for long videos.
