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.

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!

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 :)

Just the FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is the Remove Reverb tool free?

Although anyone can try Kapwing's AI toolkit for free, the Remove Reverb tool requires a Pro account.

What does a reverb remover do?

A reverb remover reduces the echo and reflected sound waves that bounce around a room during recording. When you remove reverb from audio, the tool separates your direct voice from the room reflections, making speech or vocals sound clearer and more professional.

Kapwing’s reverb remover AI tool analyzes your recording, identifies unwanted reverberation, and reduces it automatically, no manual EQ or audio engineering required.

How to fix mic echoing and remove reverb

To remove reverb and fix mic echoes in your recordings, follow these steps:

  • Upload your audio or video file.
  • Select the audio track.
  • Use the "Clean Audio" feature to start automatic reverb removal.
  • Preview the results and export.

Once you have removed the reverb, you can also use Kapwing's other audio editing tools, including vocal enhancement, silence removal, and volume normalizing.

Will removing reverb affect audio quality?

High-quality reverb removal improves clarity without making your voice sound robotic or distorted. Kapwing’s reverb remover AI is designed to preserve speech while reducing only the unwanted reflections. You can preview and adjust your project before exporting to ensure the audio still sounds natural.

Can I remove echo from video files?

Yes. You can remove echo from video as well as audio-only files.

When you upload a video, Kapwing extracts the audio track and applies the same AI-powered echo clean and reverb removal process. Your final export will include the improved audio synced to your video.

What causes mic echoing?

Mic echoing is generally caused by your recording environment and equipment:

  • Recording in a room with hard surfaces
  • Using a laptop or built-in mic
  • Sitting too far from the microphone

An echo fix tool can help by automatically reducing reflected sound. Kapwing’s echo remover works directly in your browser to clean up hollow or distant-sounding audio.

What file types does Kapwing support?

Kapwing supports all popular video and audio file types, including MP4, MOV, WebM, and MP3.
