Remove pauses and filler words.

Long pauses make a talking video feel slow. Titro cuts them in one step, retimes the captions to match, and can take the ums out of the text.

Then read the speech report

Speech report shows your pace, your filler words and your longest pauses. Around 110–160 words per minute is comfortable to follow.

Cut after you edit the words

Fix the wording first, then cut the pauses, so you review the final rhythm only once.

Keep pauses that matter

If a pause is part of the joke, restore the original and keep that video uncut.

Good to know

  • Pauses of 0.6 seconds or longer are cut, with a short margin so words don't clip.
  • Restoring the original is always possible.
