CapCut

CapCut is a video editor from ByteDance, the company behind TikTok, available in the browser, as a desktop app and on phones. Besides a timeline editor with transitions, effects and trending templates, it includes AI tools such as automatic captions, background and object removal, image generation and text- or image-to-video generation with ByteDance’s Seedance models.

It is popular with social media creators, small businesses and beginners making short vertical videos for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Editors working on long-form or broadcast projects usually need a more traditional professional editor.

The free plan covers basic editing and free templates. Paid Pro and Ultra plans unlock premium templates and features, a monthly allowance of AI credits for generation and cloud storage, and a Teams plan adds shared spaces and a brand kit.
