More free video tools
Same quality bar. Still free. Still no upload.
Part of free Instagram tools, free TikTok tools, free YouTube tools, free LinkedIn tools and free X tools.
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. Drop a video
Local MP4 or similar stays in the tab.
2. Set in and out points
Cut dead space without a timeline app.
3. Export the cut
Download the trimmed clip from your device.
Questions
Why is the output WebM or MP4, not a lossless cut?
Browsers cannot rewrite MP4 atoms. captureStream plus MediaRecorder records whatever is playing and writes a new file in a codec the browser ships. usually WebM. Cuts land near your in/out points, not on source keyframes, and the picture is re-compressed.
Why is this unavailable in my browser?
The tool needs captureStream on the video element and MediaRecorder. Safari has historically shipped neither in a usable form. The page feature-detects and says so, rather than failing after you pick a file.
Why does the clip play out loud while it exports?
The browser plays your in-to-out range in real time while MediaRecorder captures it, so a 30 second cut takes about 30 seconds and you hear it. The sound is recorded with the picture, which is why muting the player would also mute the export.

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.
