Topicut

Topicut is a documentary planning workspace and production service for YouTube creators. A project brings together a brief, editable script, shot list, source records and captions so a creator can review the material behind a video alongside its production plan. Users can search Wikimedia Commons, add archive links and keep research notes with their project. They can write or request a script draft, review its claims, select media for shots and retain attribution and license notes. The workspace also supports script revisions and saved versions. Available outputs can include video files, captions and publishing text, which the creator uploads to their own channel. Public self-serve video rendering is currently closed, although users can prepare projects and download available saved outputs. Topicut also offers a done-for-you service: customers submit a topic and target length, agree on scope and price, review the script, and receive a finished video with supporting records. API and MCP connections can read project information or, with the appropriate access, save selected draft edits.
