Click a timecode. Resolve jumps to that frame. Import markers, export to PDF, and keep your editorial notes in sync with your timeline.
Every marker color preserved on import — name, notes, color, frame-accurate timecode. Exactly as you set them in Resolve.
Built for editors who want their notes connected to their timeline, not floating in a separate app.
Click any timecode in your notes and Resolve's playhead jumps to that exact frame. No copy-paste. No app switching.
Pull markers from your Resolve timeline with full metadata - name, notes, color, timecode. Duplicate detection prevents doubles.
Bold, italic, underline. Keyboard shortcuts you already know. Auto-save every 2 seconds. Your notes are always safe.
Find any note instantly. Search results highlight in real-time across all your notes. Filter by keyword in milliseconds.
Share notes with your director, colorist, or client. Professional formatting preserved. Ready to email or print.
Projects, timelines, notes - organized hierarchically. Switch between edits instantly. Everything stored locally in SQLite.
Import markers from any DaVinci Resolve timeline. CutNotes preserves the marker name, notes, color, and timecode - and automatically detects duplicates.
Every timecode is a live link to your Resolve timeline.
Export to PDF or plain text. Formatting and timecodes preserved. Perfect for sending to your director, colorist, or client.
No complex setup. No plugins to install. Just download and start editing.
Grab the .dmg installer. Drag CutNotes to Applications.
Launch Resolve. CutNotes detects it automatically. Green dot = connected.
Take notes with embedded timecodes. Click any timecode to jump Resolve.
Export to PDF or TXT. Send to your team. Everyone stays in sync.
No Electron. No web views. A real native macOS app built with C++ and Qt.
Every editor I know keeps notes in one app and copy-pastes timecodes into Resolve dozens of times a day. I built CutNotes because the tool I needed didn't exist — notes that talk back to your timeline.
