What’s new in Dollop

New tools, editor improvements and fixes, newest first.

The assistant cuts footage with no talking in it

  • Ask for cuts on a clip with no words and the assistant makes a draft you can undo, then asks one question about it, instead of stopping at a list of options.
  • It says what it knows about a clip’s sound, and when it doesn’t know, rather than saying there’s no speech.
  • Quiet stretches can be cut from clips with no words, and a long take can be cut to a length or split into equal sections, keeping parts from all the way through it.
  • A first cut now uses clips with no words next to clips with talking, in your order, and stays with what you put on the timeline. It tells you about anything it leaves out.
  • Shorts use them too, after opening on a spoken hook, and a short made from a cut stays with what that cut keeps.

A teleprompter, and features, pricing and comparisons on the web

  • A teleprompter for voiceovers: your script scrolls over the preview at the pace you set while you record, and it stays with the project.
  • cutprint.app has a page for each feature, a pricing page, side-by-side comparisons with other editors, and this changelog.
  • Links to Dollop show a preview card when they’re shared.

Thumbnails, the content calendar and plans

  • Thumbnails are made for clicks: an AI pick of the best frame, a face punch-in, big words beside the face, a touch-up and expressions.
  • The content calendar posts approved videos to YouTube, Instagram and TikTok at their scheduled time.
  • Connected YouTube, Instagram and TikTok accounts show who they are, and ask for a reconnect when a platform stops accepting them.
  • Studios get plans with monthly allowances, starting with a free plan.
  • A new project fills itself in from a pasted or uploaded brief.
  • AI audio is filed in folders: speech fixes by change, and read-aloud clips on their own.
  • People in more than one studio switch between them from the account menu, and signing in returns them to the last one they used.
  • Audio tools: a built-in sounds and music library, voice effects, beat detection, volume keyframes, and text to speech from text clips.
  • Speed curves with presets and a beat editor. Exports follow the curve frame for frame, with the sound stretched along it.
  • Stickers, text styles, effects, speech bubbles and text animations, on phone and desktop.
  • GIF search and import, with animated GIFs that loop in the timeline and the export.
  • Stabilize, remove background, smooth slow motion and chroma key.
  • Masks, vignettes, blend modes for overlays, adjustment-layer effects and finer Adjust controls.
  • Move, resize, rotate and crop clips right in the preview. Clips can animate in, out or on a loop over a blurred canvas background.
  • Replace a clip’s media and keep everything else. Save a timeline as a template with numbered slots.
  • Custom export settings: resolution, frame rate, bitrate, codec and format.
  • Clicking a transcript word centers the timeline on it.

Phone editing, voiceovers and the assistant

  • Edit on a phone or tablet, in portrait or landscape, with the timeline always in view.
  • Record voiceovers in the editor, with a countdown and every take kept.
  • Make a voice from your own videos and try it in the Voice Studio playground. AI voice takes match the footage they’re spliced into.
  • Speech fixes show their progress and wait in a review queue before they change the timeline.
  • Assistant chats are saved with each project.
  • A guided “Build your editing style” walkthrough on the References page, and a Style Studio that shows your rules in plain language, grouped by topic.
  • Reference videos and whole channels can be added from public links.
  • Freeze frames, reversed clips, transform keyframes, filters, fonts, and transitions that slide, push and wipe in every direction.
  • Uploads show live progress, and your footage no longer waits behind reference videos.
  • Media and audio folders, project thumbnails, and deleting a project from its card.
  • Shorts can be cut from footage without speech, using its shots.
  • Home page alerts say what failed, when, and how to fix it.

Make your next video in your style.
