An AI video editor for real estate agents: one take in, a finished video out
You already film. The walkthrough on your phone, the piece to camera in the empty kitchen. It stays unposted because the edit is an evening. Your evenings are showings and contracts. Cutroom turns one talking take into a finished vertical video, and your part takes about 4 minutes. Here is what it makes, what it costs, and what it does not do.
- Your time per finished video
- ~4 min
- A finished 30-second video, batch plus export
- 110 credits
- Free in your first 7 days, no card
- 3 videos
Nine walkthroughs on the phone, one posted. The edit is the gap.
Count the listing clips in your camera roll. Now count the ones that made it to Instagram.
The gap is not effort. You filmed them between showings. The gap is the edit.
Cutting the rambles. Burning in captions. Dropping the kitchen shot over the sentence about the kitchen. That is an hour per video, at a desk, in software built for editors.
So the video waits for the weekend. The listing does not wait. Half the time the house is under offer before the video is up.
You do not need a better camera. You need the hour to disappear.
One take in, a finished 9:16 video out, in about a minute
Upload one talking-head take of up to 3 minutes. Film it at the property, in the office, or in the car.
Cutroom transcribes it, cuts it, places b-roll and burns in captions. The edit comes back in about a minute.
The transcript is the editor. Highlight a phrase and a clip lands on exactly those words. Say granite countertops and the countertops appear while you say it. Move the clip if you disagree.
Delete a line and the cut rebuilds around it. Fix a mis-heard street name in the transcript.
Your own footage works the same way. Upload the walkthrough clips you already film, and swap them in over the words that describe each room.
Six caption styles, because most of the feed watches on mute. It runs in the browser. There is no app to learn.
Your part, start to finish, is about 4 minutes. Upload, read the transcript, move a clip or two, export.

This is the whole editor
Highlight a phrase and a clip lands on those exact words. No timeline, no keyframes, no layers.
About 110 credits a video. About 20 a month on Basic.
A batch is 100 credits. It covers the transcription, the director pass and the b-roll search.
Export is 20 credits per finished minute. So a 30-second video comes to about 110 credits.
Basic is $39.99 a month for 2,500 credits. That is about 20 finished videos: one for every listing, every open house, and every week of market updates, in the same month.
Premium is $79.99 for 5,000 credits, double the budget, for the agent posting daily.
Try it first. 3 finished videos are free in your first 7 days, with 600 credits and no card. Free exports carry a Cutroom mark across the middle. Basic removes it.

It edits the agent, not the drone footage
Cutroom edits one thing well: a person talking to camera. Market updates, buyer advice, the new-listing piece where you say why the house is worth a viewing.
It is not a drone-and-gimbal editor. The cinematic film for a signature listing, color graded, nobody speaking, is a videographer's craft. Keep booking that where the listing justifies it.
Output is vertical, 9:16, 1080x1920. That is the shape Reels, TikTok and Shorts want. The horizontal MLS tour is a different file and a different tool.
Each project produces one finished video. And someone has to talk: you, or someone on your team.
That constraint is also why the format earns attention. A face and a voice make the video yours instead of a template with your logo near it.
The three videos to film this week
The market update. Sixty seconds to camera: what listed, what sold, what surprised you. Film it in the car between showings, same day every week.
The new-listing video. One take at the property naming the three reasons it will go. Your walkthrough clips land over the rooms as you name them.
The buyer question. Answer the question you were asked twice this week. One question, one answer, under a minute.
That is three takes and under ten minutes of filming. On Basic, the month's budget of about 20 videos covers the week's three with room for every new listing on top.
Questions people ask
- Can I use my own footage of the listing?
- Yes. Upload the clips you film at the walkthrough, then highlight the sentence that names each room and swap your clip in over those words. The built-in search covers millions of free stock clips for everything else.
- Do I have to be on camera?
- Someone does. Cutroom edits a talking-head take, so the input is you or a teammate speaking for up to 3 minutes. Filmed on a phone is fine. That is what most agents upload.
- Does it make horizontal video for the MLS or YouTube?
- No. Every export is a 9:16 vertical MP4 at 1080x1920, built for Reels, TikTok and Shorts. Keep your photographer for the horizontal tour.
- What does the free tier include?
- 3 finished videos in your first 7 days, with 600 credits and no card. They export with a Cutroom mark across the middle. Basic at Lite at $19.99 a month removes the mark and funds about 20 videos.
- Who should not buy this?
- An agent who wants cinematic listing films with nobody speaking. That is a videographer's job and worth the fee on the right listing. Every spoken vertical video around it is faster here, at about 110 credits each.
One take at the listing. A finished vertical video with your rooms on your words, captions burned in, back in about a minute. The first 3 are free in your first 7 days.
