One story in.
A micro-drama out.

Give Talecut a movie or a full episode, and it re-tells the story as a vertical micro-drama: a series of short episodes where each one picks up where the last left off. Subject-tracked, captioned, ready to post. You review the results; it does the editing.

Why now

A billion-dollar habit, one minute long

Micro-dramas are vertical series told in minute-long, cliffhanger-cut episodes. They grew from a Chinese app experiment into the fastest-growing format in entertainment. Apps like ReelShort and DramaBox now top Western app-store charts, and studios can’t shoot new episodes fast enough.

Talecut fills that gap without generating a frame. It re-edits the movie or episode you upload into vertical video, either as a season of short episodes or as one long video reframed end to end.

How it works

How a movie becomes a micro-drama

  1. 1

    Upload

    Pick a movie or a full episode. That's all Talecut needs.

  2. 2

    It watches the whole thing

    Every scene, every line, so it knows who's on screen, what's said, and where the story turns.

  3. 3

    The story engine writes the season

    It keeps the moments that matter and shapes them into episodes. How many, how long, and where each cliffhanger lands.

  4. 4

    It edits, you post

    Each episode is reframed to 9:16, cut cleanly on speech, and captioned. You just review and publish.

What it does for you

Cuts that feel hand-made

A real series, not random clips

Talecut reads the whole film: dialogue, scenes, pacing. Then it splits the story into episodes that follow on from each other, each ending on a hook the next one picks up.

Keeps the subject in frame

Reframing to 9:16 follows whoever's speaking with a smooth, tracked crop. Faces stay centred, and the camera pans instead of jumping between shots.

Captions that land on the beat

Cuts never land mid-word, and burned-in captions are timed to the speech, so every clip reads clearly on mute, straight out of the box.

One upload, a whole season

Episodes cut end-to-end
