Cutz is a SaaS video-encoding service that uses machine learning to make video files smaller. According to the vendor, the technology determines the optimal bitrate scene by scene while preserving visual quality (measured with VMAF). The service offers a collaborative web environment for agencies and marketing teams, with drag and drop, presets per media sales house and automatic audio normalisation, as well as an API for streaming, OTT and broadcast set-ups. Smaller files also reduce bandwidth and storage.
Cutz is a trademark of Vidmizer SAS, a French company with its registered office in Paris; the website names no parent company. Its terms state that data collected by the video-player cookies is processed under the GDPR and held on secure servers in the European Union. The hosting location of the encoded video files themselves is not stated, so ask the vendor. For a European organisation this is a French supplier under European law.
