Software to precut stl based on printer? (lemmy.world)

Is there software that will automatically cut large STLs based on the printer you have or is cutting something you just have to do manually?

I haven't used a lot of slicers, but I'm not aware of any that would do this automatically. In theory it shouldn't be terribly difficult to do, but it would be difficult to do it well (that is, optimize for fewer supports, etc).
