A podcast editing app that does the editing
Most "podcast editing apps" hand you a timeline and a tutorial. Orcast is a desktop app that does the edit itself: open your shoot folder and it syncs the cameras, cuts to whoever is speaking, and gives you a finished multicam episode. Free to start.
Built as a desktop app for Mac and Windows
Multi-camera video is heavy — Orcast runs natively on Apple Silicon, reading your files straight off the disk.
No importing clip by clip. Open the shoot folder and Orcast reads every camera, mic and recorder at once.
Your video files are never uploaded — only technical audio data leaves the computer, and the cut is worked out from it.
A finished mp4, or a layered timeline for Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
Honest about what it is
Orcast is a desktop app for multicam video podcasts on Apple Silicon Mac and Windows 10/11. It is not an iPhone app or an audio-only editor. It needs internet and an account: the online engine computes the cut plan from technical audio data. Video files stay on your computer; optional speech recognition sends selected audio to a cloud service.

Podcast editing app FAQ
Is there an app to edit podcasts?
Yes. Orcast edits recorded multicam video podcasts: it synchronizes recordings and switches camera angles. Review the result before exporting.
Is it a desktop or an iPhone app?
Orcast is a desktop app for multicam video podcasts on Apple Silicon Mac and Windows 10/11. It is not an iPhone app or an audio-only editor.
Does the app upload my video?
No. The app reads your files locally and your video files are never uploaded — only technical audio data is needed to work out the cut. Speech recognition runs over the internet only: the audio of the recording you picked goes to a cloud service — never the video. The video is not transmitted in either case.
Do I need an internet connection?
Yes — a connection and a free email sign-in are required: the cut plan is computed by Orcast's online engine, which receives only technical audio data and your settings — never your video. The edit itself is then built on your computer.
How much does the app cost?
Free to download, with the first 5 minutes of every edit free — and you can export those 5 minutes. The Pro plan lifts the length limit: the whole episode instead of the first 5 minutes.
