Bling at work in 20 seconds: silences and filler words cut on their own, three words struck out, and the export.

What the filler word remover cuts, and what it keeps

Three passes run on every take: filler words, silences and repeated takes.

What you said

So, (filler word cut: um,) today I want to show you, (filler word cut: uh,) how I plan a whole week of videos. (silence cut: long pause) (repeated take cut: The first thing I,) the first thing I do is, (filler word cut: you know,) open my calendar.

What Bling keeps

So today I want to show you how I plan a whole week of videos. The first thing I do is open my calendar.

Every word you meant, in order. Any cut comes back with one click.

Cut filler words in three steps

Drop in your recording.

Bling transcribes your MP4 or MOV and finds every pause.

An AI silence remover and filler word remover in one

Each pass is a switch, and one slider sets how tight the edit runs.

Fillers caught by name

Um, uh, erm, “you know”, “I mean” and filler “like” get cut. “Uh-huh” and “mhmm” stay.

Silences and dead air

Pauses past your threshold come out, with breathing room left. Dead air at each end always goes.

Repeated takes

Restart a line and Bling keeps the last attempt. Earlier tries stay restorable.

Four paces, one slider

Relaxed, Balanced, Tight or Strict, from natural pauses to packed short-form. Your own edits survive a re-run.

Clean cut edges

Cut timing sets how early each cut opens, so an um’s first sound does not slip through.

Edit the transcript

Strike a word and the video follows. Captions and SRT use only the words you kept.

Your video never leaves your computer

Your video, project and exports stay on your disk. Every cut runs on your machine, on every plan.

Transcription is the one step you can send out. Only the audio goes to Deepgram, which does not keep or train on it.

How do I remove ums from a video?

Drop it in. Every um, uh and “you know” arrives struck in the transcript. Restore any, then export.

How do I remove dead air from a video?

Leave Silences on. Pauses past your threshold go, both ends are trimmed, and the pace slider sets how many stay.

Can it remove silence from video in other languages?

Yes, silence cutting reads the audio, so any language works. Transcription and filler detection are English only.

Will it cut words I meant to say?

Every cut shows before export and comes back with one click. “Uh-huh” and “mhmm” are never cut.

What can I import and export?

Import MP4, MOV, MP3 or WAV. Every plan exports MP4, MP3, WAV, M4A, SRT, VTT, a CapCut kit, Premiere XML and Resolve EDL.

How much does this filler word and um remover cost?

Editing is free. To export, pick Pro at $15 a month or $120 a year, both with a 3-day free trial (card required), or Lifetime at $99 once (see pricing).
