Built for the conform side, not just the export.
A converter rebuilds a timeline for one application. A turnover is more than that, and it should never require uploading your project to get it.
Nothing leaves your Mac
CutBridge runs on your Mac. Your projects, media and deliverables never leave it. Three things do: your licence details, an optional anonymised usage report, and an error report if you choose to send one. Under an NDA or a client security mandate, that is the whole conversation. Lose the connection mid-job and it keeps working for seven days.
The whole turnover, released at once
Not one file but the package: grade and online sequences, FCP XML, AAF, burn-in references, the sound prep with its marker list, a folder layout the conform suite expects and a manifest of what is inside. Released together, validated before anything leaves editorial.
References that show where every frame came from
Burned onto the render that comes out of Premiere, so the reference is the edit by definition. Each visible layer gets its own colour: an outline, the full source file name, running source timecode and the speed when retimed, with record timecode along the bottom. Stacks, picture-in-picture, nests and speed ramps included.
Built by a commercial editor after years of preparing turnovers by hand, and tested first on real commercial deliveries.
Tested downstream in real color, online and sound workflows, not just against a delivery spec.

Questions about CutBridge.
What happens after I start the trial?
Your trial key arrives by e-mail within a minute, and the download link for the installer (a signed, notarized .pkg) appears right after you submit. Install it, open Premiere Pro, find the panel under Window → UXP Plugins → CutBridge, paste the key and release your first package. The trial is the full software for 7 days, no card required. When it ends the trial key stops; subscribe annually or monthly when you want to continue.
Which Premiere Pro versions and Macs does it support?
Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 11 or newer) with Adobe Premiere Pro 26.3 or newer. Windows and Intel Macs are not supported yet. Leave your e-mail at the bottom of the page and we will write once when they ship.
Who is it for?
Editors and assistant editors on commercial and film work, small post-production houses, and online/conform specialists: anyone who prepares turnovers for color, online and sound and wants them to arrive the same way every time.
What about data privacy?
Your projects, media and deliverables never leave your Mac. Nothing is uploaded to be converted or checked. Three things go out: your licence details, an optional anonymised usage report, and an error report if you choose to send one. Every field is listed in the CutBridge Privacy Policy.
Why not just hand the .prproj to the colorist and let a converter deal with it?
Two reasons. A converter rebuilds the timeline for one application; it does not produce the burn-in references, the sound prep, the folder structure, the manifest or the check that everything was actually created. That package is what downstream teams expect. And CutBridge runs entirely on your Mac: nothing is uploaded to be converted, and no project file sits on anyone's server. What leaves editorial is what you chose to release, and nothing else.
What if a package comes out wrong?
Write to contact@cutatlas.io with the project and what the colorist or sound team rejected. We reproduce it and ship a fix within 14 days, or, within 30 days of purchase, refund you in full. Every format fix we ship starts with somebody's real project, so we would rather have the report.
Does it need an internet connection?
Only to activate the licence. After that CutBridge checks in when it can; if the network drops, on location, in a hotel or in a suite that keeps editorial machines off the internet, it keeps working for seven days before it needs to reach us again. Your project never goes online either way.
How much does CutBridge cost?
$149 per year at the founding price (regular $179), or $29 per month if you only need it for a project. Both start with a 7-day free trial with no card, and both come with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
What does "founding price" mean?
The first 100 annual subscribers, or anyone who subscribes before 31 December 2026, pay $149 a year for as long as their subscription stays active. If you cancel and come back later, the regular price applies.
What happens if I cancel?
CutBridge keeps working until the end of the period you have paid for, then stops releasing packages. Every package you have already produced stays yours, in open formats (XML, AAF, MP4, CSV) that need neither us nor the plugin.
Do you offer team or studio licences?
Yes. Studio licensing puts several editors on one invoice, with seats you can reassign between people, a direct line for conform questions, and volume pricing from 3 seats. Write to contact@cutatlas.io with how many seats you need and which post houses you deliver to; we reply within one business day.
Can I use one licence on two Macs?
One licence is active on one Mac at a time. Moving is normal: click "Remove from this Mac" in the panel and activate on the other one.
Not on Apple Silicon yet?
CutBridge ships for Apple Silicon first. Leave your e-mail and we will write once when the Windows and Intel builds are ready, and nothing else.
