Spend less time learning... and more time crafting stories.

Kapwing helps you spend less time learning complex video editing platforms and more time crafting stories that will connect with your audience and customers. We've used the platform to help create engaging social media clips from our clients' podcasts and we can't wait to see how the platform simplifies this process going forward.

By the far the most user friendly software to use.

As a housewife at home looking to start a YouTube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Kapwing is my secret weapon!

This is one of the most powerful, yet inexpensive and easy-to-use video editing software I've found. I blow my team away with how fast and efficiently I can edit and turnaround video projects.

Gracie Peng

Kapwing is king.

When I use this software, I feel all sorts of creative juices flowing because of how jam-packed with features the software really is. A very well-made product that will keep you enticed for hours.

Love this site.

As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.

Excellent subtitling features

[It] works perfectly for me. Have been using Kapwing for a year or so, and their automatic subtitle tool gets better and better every week, it's rare that I have to correct a word. Keep up the good work!

Natasha Ball

Best online video service ever. And a miracle for deaf people.

[Subtitler] is able to autogenerate subtitles for video in almost any language. I'm deaf (or almost deaf, to be correct) and thanks to Kapwing I'm now able understand and react on videos from my friends :)

Mitch Rawlings

This tool should be in every social media account managers' bookmark list.

I use this daily to help with video editing. Even if you're a pro video editor, there is no need to be spending hours trying to get the format correct. Kapwing does the hard work for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

We have answers to the most common questions that our users ask.

Is Kapwing's online video converter free?

Yes, Kapwing's online video converter is free to use. Jump into the editor and upload any file to get started, with conversions to MP4, MP3, GIF, and more. However, the free version adds a watermark to all exports. To remove the watermark and unlock additional features, you can upgrade to a Pro account, which also allows for larger uploads.

Is there a watermark on exports?

If you are using Kapwing on a Free account, then all exports contain a watermark. Once you upgrade to a Pro account, the watermark is removed from your creations.

How do I convert a video to a GIF?

You can convert videos to GIFs with Kapwing. Simply upload the video (usually an MP4), and Kapwing will transform it into a GIF format. In the process, the sound will be removed, and the frame rate adjusted for smoother GIF playback, creating a silent, looping image that’s perfect for sharing.

Can I convert a YouTube video to an MP3?

There are several instances where you may be able to download and convert a YouTube video legally. Copy the video URL, paste it into Kapwing’s 'Add Media' section, and once it loads, add it to the timeline. Click 'Export Project' and select 'MP3' to download the audio. However, any form of YouTube download violates YouTube's Terms of Service, and could lead to serious repercussions. Read this article if you need more information.

How do you convert a video to slow motion?

Converting a video to slow motion with Kapwing is simple. After uploading your video and adding it to your timeline, click 'Edit' in the right panel. Find the 'Speed' option, then adjust the speed to slow down the video. When you're satisfied, export the video with the new speed settings.
