Publish Directly From Kapwing to Vimeo

Kapwing and Vimeo teamed up to make video creation easier. Introducing direct publish to and import from Vimeo! This partnership enables creators to bring in footage directly from cloud hosted sites and makes editing more collaborative and more seamless for all. No download required.

Publish Directly From Kapwing to Vimeo

At Kapwing, we’re building a more connected future for creative teams—where editing, collaboration, and publishing all happen in the cloud.  Today, we’re excited to announce a step in that direction: a partnership with Vimeo that enables teams to move video seamlessly between their Vimeo Workspace and the Kapwing editor.

How the Vimeo Integration Works

This new integration allows Vimeo Teams to:

  • Import videos from your Vimeo library into Kapwing by pasting a link—no download required. You can also browse your Vimeo folders to find the video you’re looking for. 
  • Edit with Kapwing’s full creative suite, including 22+ AI tools, animated subtitling, trimming, resizing, and more.
  • Export directly back to your Vimeo Workspace—choose your team, set privacy settings, and publish, all from inside the Kapwing editor.

No downloading. No uploading. Just seamless cloud editing.

Why This Matters

Teams working with video content today face a growing list of demands: faster turnarounds, more personalized content, and more platforms to publish on. This partnership between Kapwing and Vimeo helps bridge those gaps with:

  • Faster Production Pipelines: Eliminate large file downloads and re-uploads. Stay focused in the browser and edit on any device. 
  • Enterprise-Grade Security: Access is managed with OAuth and role-based permissions. All assets remain encrypted end-to-end.
  • AI-Powered Experimentation: Kapwing’s tools—like dubbing, lip sync, audio cleanup, and video generation—are now easily accessible to Vimeo teams looking to explore next-gen workflows.
  • Smarter Content Repurposing: Turn long-form Vimeo content into clips, trailers, teasers, and social media shorts using Kapwing’s Repurpose Studio.

Why Vimeo

We’re grateful to Adam and Frank from Vimeo’s Partnerships team, who reached out as part of their investment in empowering creators through the “Create” category. After meeting in-person at NAB this year, we aligned around a shared vision: making enterprise-grade video editing more collaborative and cloud-native. 

Vimeo’s focus on filmmaking and creatives aligned with Kapwing’s mission, and we wanted to serve both communities by making editing easier.  

“Vimeo's all about helping people share their stories with video,” said Charlie Ungashick, Vimeo’s CMO, “This integration with Kapwing directly addresses the hurdles that can slow down and complicate the video creation process. Together, we're making it easier to create, manage, and share high-quality video content." 

What’s Next

Vimeo joins a growing list of direct publishing platforms in Kapwing, including YouTube, Google Drive, TikTok, and Facebook. We're continuing to build bridges across the video ecosystem—and if you're interested in partnering with us to do the same or getting your application in front of Kapwing creators, reach out to our Partnerships Team.

We’re just getting started.
