What You Can Do
Drop clips on the timeline
Add videos and images to one track, then drag to set their order.
Trim as you go
Split with one key, trim the ends, and delete the parts you don't want.
Add titles and music
Text overlays, title cards and audio tracks are all in the same editor.
Fit one shape
Choose a canvas and crop clips to 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 4:3.
Export your way
MP4, MOV or WebM at up to 4K and 24, 30 or 60 fps, from Low to Lossless quality.
Use your GPU
Hardware encoding is used automatically when available, so long exports finish sooner.
What It Doesn't Do
A couple of things to know before you start.
- There are no transitions between clips. Cuts are direct.
- Merging re-encodes the video when you export, so choose High or Lossless when quality matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I merge videos without losing quality?
Export at the same resolution as your clips, using High or Lossless quality. Lossless exports are larger and take longer.
Can I join different formats?
Yes. Add the clips to the timeline and export them as one format.
Can I reorder clips?
Yes. Drag them on the timeline.
Are transitions available?
No. Clips cut directly from one to the next.
Is there a watermark?
No.
Is there a limit on clips or length?
There's no upload limit because nothing is uploaded. Your computer's speed and disk space are the practical limits.
Can I add images between clips?
Yes. Images go on the timeline with a default length of 5 seconds, which you can trim.
Are my clips uploaded?
No. Editing and export run on your computer.
