The problem

Tandem video is a bottleneck

Every DZ owner knows the frustration. You're running a tight operation, but the video workflow is stuck in 2010.

Hours of editing every night

After a big day of tandems, your editor is still at the DZ cutting videos at 10 PM. Fatigue leads to mistakes, delays, and burnout.

Customers leave before buying

Tandems land at 4 PM but the video isn't ready until tomorrow. By then, half of them have already left. That's revenue walking out the door.

Inconsistent quality

Different editors, different styles, different music choices. Your brand experience varies from day to day — customers notice.

The solution

Everything you need to deliver videos faster

Purpose-built for tandem skydive video. From camera to customer in under 3 minutes — with branded videos, social-ready exports, and instant delivery.

Auto Exit Detection

GoPro accelerometer data pinpoints the exact moment of freefall. No more scrubbing through footage.

Music Beat Sync

Automatically aligns the music drop to the exit moment. Choose from your track library or import your own.

QR Customer Matching

Scan the customer QR wristband to auto-link the video. No manual name entry needed.

Cloud Delivery

Rendered videos upload to the cloud automatically. Customers get an email with a branded watch page.

Instagram Reel Export

Every video automatically gets a 9:16 vertical version optimized for Instagram Reels and TikTok. Customers share, your DZ gets free marketing.

Hero Photo Stills

Automatically extracts the best frames from each video as downloadable photos. Exit, freefall, deployment — moments customers will frame.

SMS & WhatsApp Delivery

Send videos via SMS, WhatsApp, or email. Tourists check their phone, not their inbox. 98% open rate vs 20% for email.

DZ Branded Videos

Your logo watermark, customer name, and DZ branding baked into every video. Every share on social media is an ad for your dropzone.

Daily Manifest

Mobile app for your staff to manage today's customers, track video status in real-time, and get push notifications when videos are ready.

with Cutaway, same result

faster throughput on busy days

“We built Cutaway because we lived this problem. After years of editing tandem videos at DZs across Europe, we knew there had to be a faster way.”

— Built by active skydivers and dropzone operators

Why Cutaway

Built from the inside

Not another SaaS from people who've never set foot on a dropzone. Cutaway comes from lived experience.

Built by a camera flyer

Cutaway was built by someone who has done the job. Years of editing tandem videos at DZs across Europe, matching files at midnight, chasing bounced emails. This isn't software designed in a boardroom.

Designed for real operations

Every feature exists because of a real problem: SD cards with 40 clips and no labels, customers who leave before their video is ready, editors who burn out after peak season weekends.

Launching at DZ camps this season

We&apos;re piloting Cutaway at coaching camps across Europe in April and May 2026. Be one of the first dropzones to try it — free for your first month, set up on-site by us.

Frequently asked questions

Everything DZ operators want to know before getting started.

What GoPro models are supported?
GoPro Hero 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13. Any GoPro that records accelerometer telemetry in the GPMF stream. We recommend Hero 11 or newer for best results.
Do I need an internet connection at the DZ?
Only for delivering videos to customers. The import, auto-edit, and render steps all work fully offline. Videos queue for upload when you’re back online.
Can I customise the edit style and music?
Yes. You control the music library, intro/outro overlays, your DZ branding, and default trim settings. Each editor can also fine-tune individual videos before rendering.
What happens if the auto-edit gets it wrong?
You can always adjust. The timeline preview lets you tweak trim points, swap music, or re-detect the exit before rendering. Most editors only need to adjust 1 in 10 videos.
How does customer delivery work?
Scan the customer’s QR wristband or enter their email. The video uploads to our cloud and they receive a link via email, SMS, or WhatsApp to a branded watch page where they can view, download, and share. They also get a vertical Reel-ready version and hero photo stills.
Do customers get social-ready videos?
Yes! Every video automatically includes a 9:16 vertical version optimized for Instagram Reels and TikTok, plus 3-5 hero photo stills from key moments (exit, freefall, deployment). Customers can share directly from the watch page. Every share is organic marketing for your DZ.
Is my footage stored securely?
Videos are stored in encrypted cloud storage (Cloudflare R2) with unique per-video access tokens. Only the customer with the link can view their video. Data is retained for 90 days by default, configurable per DZ.
What if I’m not happy after the trial?
Walk away — no contracts, no cancellation fees. Your first month is completely free, and we’ll help you migrate any data. We’re confident you won’t want to go back to manual editing.
