Remove filler words

Every um, uh and “you know”, found in the transcript. Uncheck the ones to keep, then remove the rest in one go.

Remove filler words in Clacky

What it is

Studio looks through your transcript for filler words: um, uh, hmm and phrases like “you know” and “I mean”. You get a list to check before anything is cut.

Uncheck any you want to keep, then remove the rest at once. Each cut gets a soft fade, and one Undo brings them all back. Real words like “like” or “so” are only picked when they sit alone between pauses.

How to use it

  1. Transcribe first

    Open your recording in Studio. In the Edit by transcript section, click Transcribe if there is no transcript yet.

  2. Review the fillers

    In the Remove fillers row, click Review to see every one Studio found.

  3. Keep the ones you want

    Uncheck any filler you’d rather leave in.

  4. Remove them

    Click Remove. They are all cut in one go, and one ⌘Z brings them back.
