    More free video tools

    Same quality bar. Still free. Still no upload.

    Your files never leave your device

    Free to use, with no account, no usage limit and no watermark, because the work runs on your device rather than on our servers.

    This is not a promise about how carefully we handle your upload. There is no upload. The file you choose is read into memory by your own browser, processed there, and handed back as a download — the tool has no server component and makes no network request with your data.

    • Nothing is stored. We never receive the file, so there is no copy to retain, no retention period to disclose, and nothing to delete on request.
    • Nothing is transmitted. No upload endpoint, no analytics payload carrying file contents, no third-party processor.
    • You can verify it. Load this page, disconnect from the internet, and use the tool. It still works, because everything it needs is already on your machine.
    • Nothing persists after you close the tab. Files are held in page memory only — not in local storage, not in a cache, not in a database.

    A note on wording, because it matters: we do not describe these tools as “encrypted.” Encryption protects data that travels to somebody else's computer. Your file does not travel, so there is nothing to encrypt and nothing to intercept — which is a stronger guarantee than encryption, not a weaker one. The page itself is served over HTTPS like the rest of the site.

    This makes the tools safe for material you are contractually barred from uploading to third-party services — client footage under NDA, unreleased campaign assets, anything covered by a confidentiality clause.

    How it works

    1. 1. Drop a video

      Any local clip you want to skim.

    2. 2. Pick frame density

      How many stills across the duration.

    3. 3. Export the sheet

      A grid of frames for review or docs.

    Questions

    The frame is not exactly the time I asked for. Why?

    Browsers seek to a decodable frame, usually the nearest keyframe, not to an arbitrary timestamp. A 2-second GOP can put you almost two seconds off the mathematical sample point. The label is the time the element actually landed on, not the time we requested.

    Why does an HDR clip look washed out?

    Canvas 2D draws whatever the element composited to the page, in the page's colour space, which is typically sRGB. HDR metadata is not preserved. The grid is for shot review, not a colour-accurate still.

    How many frames fit on one sheet, and what format is it?

    From 2 to 48 frames, in 2 to 8 columns, with each cell 120 to 640 px wide. Frames are taken at evenly spaced points across the clip, each labelled with its timestamp, and the sheet downloads as a JPEG.

    These rearrange files. Versely makes new ones.

    Everything on this page works on a file you already have, which is why it costs nothing. Generating something that did not exist (video from a prompt, a voice, a score) runs a model, and that costs credits.
