Multicam podcast editing that does itself
Drop in the files from every camera — Orcast finds the sync by sound on its own, cuts to whoever is speaking, and delivers a finished edit. A native Mac app, and your video never leaves your Mac.
Three steps, and the edit is done
No manual track syncing, no switching camera angles by hand. You hand over the raw footage — you get back a finished episode.
Drop in the cameras
Drag the files from every camera and audio recorder into the Orcast window. Different devices, different start times — it doesn't matter.
Orcast syncs and cuts the angles
The app aligns the tracks by sound down to the frame and cuts to whoever is speaking at that moment on its own.
Export the finished edit
Take the finished multicam episode as an mp4 — or send a layered timeline to Premiere / DaVinci if you want to fine-tune it.
Everything you need for a multicam episode
Voice-driven switching
Orcast detects who's speaking and puts them on a close-up. The conversation comes together like it was really directed.
Sync by sound
Tracks from different cameras align automatically by their audio waveform — frame-accurate, with no clapperboard and no timecode.
Subtitles
Optionally, get an accurate speech transcript and subtitles, ready for social media and short clips.
Export anywhere
A finished mp4 file — or a layered project for Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, so you can refine it by hand.
Your footage stays private
Your gigabytes of video are never uploaded. Only technical audio data goes up to work out the cut — the video files themselves never leave your Mac. Subtitles are optional: speech recognition can run on your Mac — then the audio never leaves your Mac — or through a cloud speech-recognition service, in which case only the audio is sent.
Native Mac app
Built for Apple Silicon, with a familiar macOS interface — a real app window, not a website in a browser tab.

Common questions
How does Orcast edit a multicam podcast automatically?
Drop in the files from every camera and microphone. Orcast lines them up by their audio — frame-accurate, no clapperboard or timecode — then cuts to whoever is speaking to build a finished multicam edit you can export.
Does my video ever leave my Mac?
No. Your video files are never uploaded — they stay on your Mac. To work out the cut, Orcast reads the sound locally and sends only technical audio data — never the video itself.
Does Orcast switch cameras automatically by who's speaking?
Yes. Orcast does automatic multicam camera switching by who is speaking, as a native Mac app that syncs your cameras by sound and exports a finished mp4 or a layered timeline for Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
What does the free version include?
Orcast is free to download and use (a free email sign-in and an internet connection are required). The first 5 minutes of every edit are free, with full sync-by-sound and auto-cut — and you can export them. Editing and exporting the full episode is part of Pro.
