Save the tightened video, ready to post, with the dead air gone.
Tighter cut, bigger impact.
Once the dead air is gone, Montaj takes your video the rest of the way: auto subtitles, background-noise cleanup and smart trims, all on-device, never uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
How do I remove silence from a video for free?
Import your video here, then click “Remove silences”. The dead air is detected and cut automatically in your browser, no account, no watermark, no fee. Save the result as an MP4.
Is my video uploaded to a server?
No. Silence detection and cutting run entirely in your browser, on your device with ffmpeg.wasm. Your video is never sent anywhere.
Will cutting the silences fall out of sync?
No. The same segments are removed from the picture and the sound together, so your talking-head or podcast stays perfectly lip-synced.
Can I control how aggressive the cuts are?
Yes. Open the advanced settings to change the silence threshold (in dB) and the minimum gap length (in seconds). A higher threshold trims quiet pauses too; a longer minimum keeps your natural rhythm.
What if my video has no audio track?
There’s nothing to detect, so the tool tells you the video has no audio. Silence removal only works on videos that contain a soundtrack.
Is this an auto silence remover?
Yes. It's a fully automatic silence remover: pick your thresholds (or use the defaults) and it will cut silence from your video without any manual scrubbing.
