Don't want to fully remove a sound? Adjust it.

Turn down the background music without losing it entirely, or lower the dialogue while keeping the ambience. You control the balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about SoundScrub

What types of sounds can SoundScrub handle?

SoundScrub can target a wide variety of sounds in your videos, including speech/dialogue, background music, and ambient noise. You can also use custom prompts to target specific sounds like "dog barking", "keyboard clicking", "traffic noise", "crowd chatter", or any other sound you can describe in natural language. For each sound, you can remove it completely, keep only it, or use adjust mode to control the volume of the targeted sound and everything else independently.

How much does it cost to process a video?

SoundScrub uses a simple credit-based pricing: $0.20 per 30 seconds of video. For example, a 5-minute video costs $2.00, and a 30-minute video costs $12.00. There are no subscriptions or hidden fees - you only pay for what you process. Credits never expire and can be used whenever you need them.

What video formats does SoundScrub support?

SoundScrub supports all common video formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WebM, and more. The app automatically extracts the audio from your video file, processes it, and returns a new video with the same quality and format as the original - only the unwanted audio is removed.

Is my video data secure and private?

Yes. Your videos never leave your computer. Only the extracted audio is sent to our servers for processing, and it's deleted immediately after processing is complete. We don't store, analyze, or use your content for any purpose other than performing the requested audio removal. All communication between the desktop app and our processing servers is encrypted. We never see your payment details - they're handled securely by Stripe, our payment processor.

What platforms is SoundScrub available on?

SoundScrub is available for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows, and Linux. The desktop app provides a native experience while leveraging cloud-powered AI for processing.

How long does it take to process a video?

Processing time varies based on video length and server load, but typically takes a few minutes for most videos. The SoundScrub desktop app provides real-time progress updates, and you can continue using your computer while processing happens in the background.

Can I remove multiple sounds from the same video?

Each processing job removes one type of sound. To remove multiple different sounds from the same video, you can process the video multiple times - first removing one sound, then processing the result to remove another sound. Each processing job is charged separately based on video length.

What happens if I'm not satisfied with the results?

We offer a 7-day refund policy for technical issues or processing failures. If the audio separation doesn't work as expected due to a technical problem on our end, contact us at [email protected] within 7 days for a refund. Refunds do not cover cases where the AI separation quality doesn't meet expectations - complex audio mixes or unusual sounds may not separate perfectly, and that is an inherent limitation of the technology.

What AI model does SoundScrub use?

SoundScrub is powered by Meta's SAM Audio (Segment Anything Model for Audio), a state-of-the-art AI model for audio source separation. SAM Audio can isolate and remove specific sounds from complex audio mixes using natural language descriptions. SoundScrub makes this model accessible as a simple desktop app - no Python, no GPU setup, no command line required.
