The questions people actually ask, answered first. Every answer links to the chapter with the rest.

## Does Cuts work offline?

The editor and all analysis, yes — cutting, transcripts, beats, captions all run on your phone without a connection. The chat and cloud jobs need one. See [The basics](/cuts/docs/the-basics).

## Is Cuts free?

Cuts has a real Free plan: unlimited editing, 2-minute exports (with a small watermark), full on-device analysis, AI music and voiceover, the agent for light use, and a small monthly credit allowance. Paid plans open up video and image generation, cloud backup, voice cloning, longer exports, and remove the watermark. See [Credits & plans](/cuts/docs/credits-and-plans) and [pricing](/pricing).

## Is there a watermark?

On Free exports, yes — a small Ferment watermark. Any paid plan exports clean. See [Export & share](/cuts/docs/export-and-share).

## Do I own what I make with Cuts?

Yes. Your footage and everything Cuts makes for you is yours, on Free and paid plans alike — commercial use included, no license tiers. See [Export & share](/cuts/docs/export-and-share).

## Does Cuts post to my social accounts?

No. Cuts doesn't connect to your accounts and never posts on your behalf. It plans and makes the videos; you publish them. See [The plan](/cuts/docs/the-plan).

## Are my videos uploaded to Cuts servers?

On Free, no — analysis runs on your phone and only its compact results sync. On paid plans, cloud backup is optional and off by default. When a cloud job needs footage that isn't backed up, Cuts uploads only the piece the job needs and deletes it after. See [Your library](/cuts/docs/your-library).

## What happens if a job fails?

Nothing — credits are charged only when a job succeeds. Cancel a job in flight and the reserved credits come back. See [Credits & plans](/cuts/docs/credits-and-plans).

## How long can an export be?

Two minutes. Cuts is built for reels and shorts, not long-form. See [Export & share](/cuts/docs/export-and-share).

## What languages does Cuts work in?

Transcription and captions: 26 languages, on the phone — European languages plus Russian. Dubbing: 23 languages. The app itself speaks English for now. See [Speech & captions](/cuts/docs/speech-and-captions).

## How do I move Cuts to a new phone?

Sign in with the same account — your projects come along. Media that was backed up re-downloads on demand; originals that lived only on the old phone are wherever you keep them, usually Photos. See [Your library](/cuts/docs/your-library).

## How do I cancel my Cuts subscription?

Cancel where you subscribed — web subscriptions in your account settings, App Store subscriptions in your Apple settings. You keep the plan until the end of what you've paid for, then move to Free. See [Credits & plans](/cuts/docs/credits-and-plans).

## Can Cuts generate video from scratch?

On paid plans, yes — clips of 4–15 seconds from words, stills, or reference footage, with the cost quoted before anything runs. You build a reel from generated moments, not generate a reel. See [Generate](/cuts/docs/generate).

## Can two people edit one Cuts project?

No — projects are single-editor. See [The basics](/cuts/docs/the-basics).
