Shooting Cut™ turns raw match footage into a finished video in one purpose-built workflow. Trim dead time, sync POV and third-person views, combine every stage, add timing and results, and export a full-match video or vertical social clip on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Shot and timer detection does the cutting, so you can finish the match and post from your phone minutes later.
Use one purpose-built workflow to prepare a stage, synchronize camera angles, assemble a complete match, add performance context, reframe for social formats, and export.
Auto Trim takes exactly 1 video and cuts the dead air before and after your stage with customizable padding. Auto Trim and score import are free; free Auto Trim exports include the Shooting Cut watermark and logo intro card.
Arrange up to 20 sequential stage clips in competition order and export one Full Match video while preserving each clip's score association. The Stages Confirmation workbench shows the whole running order in one place so you can fix a stage's position, source, and intro card before the render starts.
Split Sync takes exactly 2 videos and locks both angles into timeline alignment using the timer beep. Choose a synchronized layout for your POV and follow camera.
Stage Mix takes 2–3 videos labeled POV, Follow, or Static. Automatic movement-aware switching builds the cut, and manual override keeps every transition under your control.
Built for classifiers, Standards stages, and Steel Challenge. Strings Mode finds every string in a run, cuts the dead time between them, and timer-aligns multi-camera footage string by string into a split-screen or Stage Mix layout.
Use Reframe and Track for free in Auto Trim to create a tracked crop of 9:16, 3:4, 4:5, 6:7, or 1:1. Source keeps the source frame, while 16:9 is a separate non-tracked option. Merge and Stage Mix also support Reframe within their Pro editing modes.
Import supported PractiScore, ESS, HDP, Shoot'n Score It, and IDPA results for free. When PractiScore supplies official per-shot records, align available times, splits, shot count, and score context to an Auto Trim video at no cost.
Analyze timer beeps and gunshot impulses for free in Auto Trim to propose trim points and timing data. Review detected markers when AGC, neighboring shots, echo, or weak beeps affect the recording. The waveform has two zoom levels: a whole-run view for finding the stage window, and a close view for moving a single marker.
Use Pro on macOS to render several prepared match edits as separate outputs. Batch export does not combine stages; Merge creates one Full Match video.
One subscription covers all of the subscriber's Apple devices. Use the desktop workflow on Mac or the purpose-built touch experience on iPhone and iPad.
Core audio/video analysis and person tracking run on device. Raw footage is not uploaded to a Shooting Cut media-processing server for editing or analysis, and there is no cross-app advertising tracking. See our Privacy Policy for iCloud, subscription, telemetry, score import, and user-initiated upload details.
Export a finished Auto Trim video to your device and use the system share sheet for free. You can also choose one supported sharing destination at a time; Pro enables multi-platform sharing in one workflow. Platform authorization is separate.
Free Auto Trim exports include the Shooting Cut logo intro card. Pro enables custom intro cards with match details, shooter information, and your own logo. In a Full Match Merge, every stage can carry its own intro card, so a viewer knows which stage they are watching without you cutting title slides by hand.
Pro can remove the Shooting Cut watermark or replace it with custom text, a logo, or an image, and you can place more than one custom watermark in the same export. Free Auto Trim exports retain the Shooting Cut watermark.
Drag the watermark, score card, timer, and rolling shot list to wherever the frame has room. Move an overlay off the target array, out of the vertical crop, or away from a platform's caption bar instead of accepting a fixed corner.
Decide what the performance subtitle says. Switch the timer, best split, first shot, rolling shot list, time column, and split column on or off one by one, and choose how many shot rows stay on screen — a full data readout for a review edit, or a bare timer for a social clip.
Choose the outcome you need: trim one stage, synchronize camera views, assemble a full match, add performance context, or export another format.

Trim one stage, synchronize simultaneous views, assemble a complete match, or change the publishing shape.
Add official context, preserve accessible results, render separate outputs, and understand processing boundaries.
Three signature editing features built around common competitive-shooting video workflows.
The 16:9 example is a non-tracked landscape format; the 4:5 example uses Track. Supported Track crop ratios are 9:16, 3:4, 4:5, 6:7, and 1:1.
Use 2–3 videos labeled POV, Follow, or Static for automatic movement-aware switching, then manually override any cut.
Exactly 2 videos, one timeline — choose top and bottom, a HUD layout, or Side by Side. Multi-angle top-and-bottom and HUD layouts support 50/50, 40/60, and 30/70 pane ratios.
Each mode is a separate workflow with its own published result: a single-stage recap, a full-match video, a two-angle comparison, a switched multi-camera stage, or a string-by-string classifier run.
Trim one match video to the stage window and add performance data. Auto Trim and score import are free; free Auto Trim exports include the Shooting Cut watermark and logo intro card.
Stitch up to 20 clips into one continuous video. Drag to reorder, set per-clip scores, and control audio for each segment independently.
Lock exactly two angles in sync using the timer beep. Stack both views top and bottom in Full Screen, add a Center or Top HUD, or place them Side by Side. Multi-angle top-and-bottom and HUD layouts support 50/50, 40/60, and 30/70 pane ratios.
Label each video POV, Follow, or Static. Automatic movement-aware switching builds the edit, and manual override lets you control any cut.
Read every timer beep in a single recording, split the run into its strings, and drop the reload-and-reset time in between. Multi-camera footage is timer-aligned string by string, and PractiScore results can verify each string against its official time.
