How does Passcut export rough cuts to Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve?

On Pro, Passcut generates standard FCPXML and EDL files directly from your rough cut timeline, referencing original media files on disk for instant import into Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Adobe Premiere Pro.

NLE handoff preserves clip boundaries, order, connected B-roll, and cut points created during instruction-driven transcript editing, enabling pro editors to perform color grading and audio finishing in their primary NLE.

Can Passcut export rendered MP4 video files directly?

Yes. Passcut renders standalone MP4 video files directly on-device using AVFoundation hardware acceleration on Apple Silicon, alongside FCPXML and EDL project interchange formats.
