Video analysis for ice hockey · runs on your Mac

Stop cutting games by hand. Get the clips cut for you.

Add the recorded game. HockeyCut analyzes it on your Mac and lists goals, power plays and penalty kills, faceoffs, zone entries and D-zone exits as short clips. Shots and turnovers come as candidates: you answer Yes or No, and the clip plays by itself.

Animation drawn by us from sample events. Not real game footage.

From recorded game to ready clips. Four steps.

  1. 01

    Add the video, squad and game sheet

    Drag the recorded video into the app on your Mac. Even a 4K video is converted to 1080p. Then add the squad and the official game sheet.

  2. 02

    AI analyzes the game

    The analysis runs on your Mac by itself, so you can do other work meanwhile. One period takes about 1.5 hours on an M5 Mac.

  3. 03

    The list fills in, you answer Yes or No

    Goals, power plays and penalty kills, faceoffs, zone entries and D-zone exits appear in the event list. Shot and turnover candidates play their clip by themselves: answer Yes or No with a click or the keyboard.

  4. 04

    Pick, draw, present

    Choose the clips you need, add arrows and highlights with the drawing tools, show them to the team and export the report.

If your league is not listed, goals are read from the scoreboard; more leagues are being added.

League names belong to their owners; HockeyCut is not affiliated with these leagues.

Every event, already cut. Pick one and press play.

Choose an event type and the clips are already there, each with period, game time, team and length — the same list you work with in the app.

    Events sit in lanes by type, with the game clock and score above.

    • Attack: goals, zone entries
    • Defense: D-zone exits
    • Other: faceoffs. Power plays and penalty kills have their own lane.

    The analysis happens on your Mac; the full game is never uploaded.

    Analysis runs locally on Apple Silicon; the full game video is not uploaded anywhere. Even a 4K video is converted to 1080p right on your computer.

    • Local analysis

      The model runs on your Mac. No upload queue, no waiting on someone else's servers.

    • Your answers help train the model

      That is what you give back for the free or $10 plan: your Yes and No answers and short clips of those moments are sent to us to improve our model. They are used only for training and stored encrypted; never sold or published.

    • One confirmation, once

      When you first open the app you confirm that you own the video or have the owner's permission, and that the people shown (their guardians, for players under 18) agreed to its use. You are not asked again.

    • No face recognition

      Players are not identified from their faces. Youth footage gets extra protection.

    Built for the people who work in the video room.

    Coach

    Walk into the next practice with the clips already cut — and your evening back.

    • Power-play and penalty-kill clips, ready to show (best with the official game sheet)
    • Draw on clips and present them to the team
    • Export clips and the report to show the team
