Start free with a clip timeline.

Use the browser timeline to start clipping, then upgrade when you want AI to find moments, add captions and reframe for social.

The pain

Free clip tools often stop before the final edit.

01
Auto clipping may be limited by credits.
02
Captions and vertical crop still need work.
03
Free outputs can be hard to revise.
