Features

Made for the way you cut.

Two workspaces, one project, and the tools video editors reach for every day.

Simple workspace

Quick, friendly and calm.

  • One main track. Clips close gaps by themselves, so there is nothing to line up.
  • Big, friendly tools. Text, filters, speed, captions and audio sit in one tidy row.
  • Straight to social. Pick TikTok, Reels or YouTube and export. The size is already right.
Advanced workspace

Precise, and keyboard first.

  • Connected tracks. Titles, cutaways and music attached to the clips they belong to.
  • Precise trims. Ripple, roll, slip and slide, with timecode entry when you need it.
  • Colour, keyframes and scopes. Wheels, curves, a luma histogram and keyframes on any value.

Magnetic timeline

The main storyline keeps your clips in order. Delete one and the rest close the gap. Insert one and the rest make room. Connect titles, cutaways and music to the clips they belong to, and they move together.

Keyframes

Add a keyframe, move forward, change a value. Kaptcho fills in the movement between. Pick ease in, ease out or linear for each one, and drag keyframes along the timeline to adjust the timing.

Colour and looks

Start with a look, then fine-tune with sliders, colour wheels and curves. A luma histogram shows you what the picture is really doing. Copy a grade from one clip and paste it onto the rest.

Text and titles

Add a title, choose a font, size, colour and shadow, and pick how it arrives and leaves. Titles are drawn once and reused for export, so what you see in the viewer is what you get in the file.

Captions from SRT and VTT

Import an SRT or VTT file and every line becomes a caption clip. Style them all at once, nudge the timing, or edit the words in place. Captions are drawn into the video when you export.

Speed and freeze frames

Change the speed of a clip from a tenth to ten times, play it backwards, or freeze the frame under the playhead. Audio follows the speed change, or you can mute it for a clean slow-motion shot.

Audio fades and loudness

See your sound as waveforms. Drag the fade handles, balance the levels, and pan voices left or right. Export can level the whole mix to a loudness target so it sounds right on the platform.

Transitions

Select the cut between two clips and choose a transition. Drag its edge to make it longer or shorter. Previews play in real time, and the export matches.

Proxies for heavy media

When a file is too heavy to play smoothly, Kaptcho makes a lighter copy in the background and uses it for editing. Your original is never touched, and the final export always comes from the original.

Hardware export

On a Mac Kaptcho uses VideoToolbox. On Windows and Linux it uses NVENC, Quick Sync or AMF when your machine has them. If not, it switches to software encoding on its own.

Export

Presets for every network, and your own settings.

Custom export gives you size, frame rate from 23.976 to 120, H.264, HEVC, ProRes, VP9 or AV1, and audio as AAC, Opus or PCM. You can export audio only, too.
