Sequence is a transcript-based video and audio editor for Mac. Edit your recording like a text document: cut a sentence, and it disappears from the video too. Transcription and speaker detection run on your Mac, with no cloud involved. Remove filler words and silence, sync multi-camera footage, and fine-tune everything on a visual timeline. Your source files stay untouched, so you can try as many versions as you like.

  • Cut podcasts and interviews fast

  • Trim filler words and dead air

  • Sync multi-camera shoots

  • Hand off rough cuts to Final Cut Pro

Sequence features


Edit with words, not waveforms

Sequence transcribes your recordings right on your Mac, with no cloud and no uploads. Read the transcript, delete what you don’t need, and rearrange sentences to reshape the story. Make as many versions as you want. Your original recordings stay intact.


Tighten the pace in a click

Strip out filler words and silence so conversations flow. Speaker detection runs on your Mac too, so you can see who’s talking. People keep familiar voices organized across projects.


Multi-Cam projects

Sync camera recordings with external audio, then review the timing and adjust it. Sequence builds a program with automatic camera cuts, and you can edit every one of them.


Timeline and layouts when you need control

Trim clips, reorder them, and scrub through recordings on a timeline with thumbnails and waveforms. Add overlays, crop and reframe, or build picture-in-picture and split-screen layouts. Changes stay in sync with the transcript.


Rough cuts with your AI assistant

Connect Claude or ChatGPT through Sequence's local agent tools. Ask for a rough cut, transcript cleanup, or an export. Agent sessions work on a copy by default, so your original stays safe.


Export or hand off

Export video, audio, transcripts, or subtitles. Continue in Final Cut Pro, or share a Sequence Package with your media, transcripts, and edit decisions. You can encrypt the editing data in packages to keep them private.
