About Microsoft Clipchamp

Clipchamp is a template-driven video editor that Microsoft acquired and now ships with Windows 11 and Microsoft 365. It runs in the browser or as a Windows app and offers a simple multitrack timeline with trimming, text, transitions, stock media, green screen, auto-captions, AI text-to-speech voiceovers and a screen and camera recorder. Templates and aspect-ratio presets target social posts, presentations and work updates. The personal version is free with watermark-free exports up to 1080p, and premium features, including 4K export, premium stock and a brand kit, are now included with Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscriptions rather than sold separately. A work version is available to Microsoft 365 business customers. Because it processes in the browser, long or high-resolution projects can be slow, and its effects and fine control are basic compared with desktop editors. It suits beginners, students and office workers who want a quick, no-install editor.

Best for: Beginners and Microsoft 365 users who want a quick, free editor in the browser.
