Remove filler words: cut “um” and “uh” from your video
Everybody says “um”. In conversation nobody notices; on video it sounds unsure. Teleprompter Cut finds filler words and repeated words in your recording and shows them as a checklist. Whatever you leave marked is cut from picture and sound.

How to remove filler words
- 1
Use Whisper for recognition
Filler words are detected with Whisper, because it delivers every single word with a timestamp. You download the model once.
- 2
Review the hits
In the text step the matches appear as chips. Marked means it gets cut.
- 3
Unmark what should stay
Sometimes a repetition is intentional. Tap it once and it stays in.
- 4
Render
The marked spots are removed together with the silence cut. Subtitles and zoom adjust automatically.
How detection works
Word by word
Whisper runs in a word mode and is primed with the typical filler words of the language, so even short “um”s are caught reliably.
Repetitions
Say “the the” or restart a sentence, and the app finds the doubled words too.
Everything stays in sync
Whatever is cut is subtracted from the timeline. Preview, export, subtitles and zoom marks stay aligned.
Good to know
- With a teleprompter you produce fewer filler words anyway: you never have to think about what comes next.
- Not every “so” has to go. A few natural pause words make you sound human.
- The larger Whisper model (182 MB) is more accurate; the small one (57 MB) is faster.
Questions
Why does it need Whisper?
Android's own recogniser often simply drops filler words. Whisper returns every word with exact timing, which is the only way to cut cleanly.
Does it run in the cloud?
No. Whisper runs on your phone. The model is downloaded once; your video is never uploaded.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Like everything in Teleprompter Cut, filler word removal is free and ad-free.
