HEVCut is a native iOS/macOS app for compressing videos and photos using HEVC and HEIC encodings to free up iCloud storage. It combines duplicate detection, burst photo cleanup, and batch processing into a polished privacy-first tool, though it relies on Apple's built-in frameworks rather than novel algorithms.

Target audience: iPhone and Mac users, creators, photographers
