Automated clip trimming.
Save yourself the chore of cleaning up hours of media. Reduce your footage into streamlined clips ready to be edited, with just the click of a button.
b-trim reads how the camera moved, and keeps only the bits where it moved well.
One panel. One click.
Select your clips
Open a bin containing your clips to process.
Send to b-trim
Click once. B-Trim analyses every selected clip locally. Watch progress in the panel as the engine removes all unusable footage.
Edit
Three sequences appear in your project — B-roll Selects, Cut content and Unanalysed (over 5min) — built from your original clips. Sort them on the timeline, organise them into bins, or just start editing immediately.
Built for editors who value their time.
Entirely Local
Footage never leaves your Mac. No upload, no cloud, no privacy surprises.
~45× realtime
2h15 of 4k footage trimmed in three minutes on Apple Silicon. Start editing sooner. (Results may vary.)
Multiple subclips per file
One continuous take often hides several distinct selects. b-trim splits within a clip, so different framings inside the same take each get their own entry.
Non-destructive
Nothing is deleted. All your footage is categorised across the three Premiere sequences, so anything trimmed out is still one click away.
Inside Premiere
Everything happens inside Premiere. The panel reads directly from your active bin — no third-party client, no exports, no drag-and-drop.
Stay Creative
B-Trim does not make any editorial decisions for you. Its aim is to fast track file preparation whilst leaving the creative decision making to you.
Prefer to work from bins? No problem.

Common questions.
What do I need to install?
Two pieces, one installer. The Premiere panel (a small .ccx via Creative Cloud) and the local engine (b-trim.app on your Mac). The panel talks to the engine over localhost — both are walked through in the welcome email.
What systems does b-trim run on?
Adobe Premiere Pro 26 or later, on macOS (Apple Silicon recommended). Windows support is on the list but not yet shipped.
Does my footage leave my computer?
Never. The panel sends file paths to the engine running on your own Mac — bytes don't move, and nothing touches the network.
How long does it take?
Around 45× realtime. 2h15 of 4k footage is trimmed in three minutes on an Apple Silicon Mac — bigger jobs scale linearly across cores. (Results may vary with codec, source resolution, and chip.)
What gets cut?
Sub-shots that score low on camera motion — jerky framing between intentional moves and the dead air at the start and end of takes. The engine never throws away "duplicate" framings: if you shot the same subject three ways, you get three selects.
Does it work with handheld footage?
Yes. Although less reliable than with stabilised footage, b-trim will usually do a pretty good job with messier handheld material. Keep an eye on the Cut content sequence in case the engine makes the occasional mistake — anything you wanted to keep is right there to drag back into your timeline.
Will it touch my project or rename my clips?
No. b-trim creates new sequences and bins directly inside your project — nothing is imported, and your original clips, bins and timelines stay exactly as you left them.
Can I move my licence to a new machine?
Yes — email me and I'll deactivate the old one. Self-serve transfer is on the roadmap.
Refunds?
