## Questions & answers

### Is this clip editor actually free, or is there a watermark or paywall?

Free with no watermark and no paywall; downloading takes a free account. Editing runs locally in your browser.

### Do I need to install any video clip editing software?

No install. The editor runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly, so it works on any laptop or desktop without downloading software.

### Will my clip get uploaded to a server?

No. Your video is processed on your own device and never leaves it. We keep nothing.

### Can I cut a clip at an exact frame, or does it snap to keyframes?

Frame-accurate cuts. Set in/out points exactly where you want them; cuts on keyframe boundaries are lossless stream-copies, and cuts between keyframes re-encode only the surrounding frames.

### What if I need captions or auto-cropping for TikTok and Shorts?

For AI-detected highlights, animated captions, and face-tracked 9:16 crops, use OpenClip itself: paste a link or upload the full video and it cuts the clips for you.

## Stop editing one clip at a time.

OpenClip finds your best moments, reframes them face-aware for every platform, writes the captions, and posts them. One upload, a week of content.
