# CutLuma > CutLuma is a free online video editor that runs in the web browser (nothing to install). It has a Magic Studio (describe a video and AI designs it from 5030 templates; AI images; edit photos with words; rewrite or translate every text; resize a design for another platform; animate a whole design; auto reframe so the camera follows people), Canva-style design tools (type on the canvas, text effects, draw, charts, 1,900 icons, device mockups, QR codes, frames and grids, audio visualizer, photo and video effects, layers, version history), a multi-track timeline, a studio screen recorder (screen + camera + mic, auto-zoom, silence removal) and a Chrome extension recorder, AI captions in 17 languages including right-to-left Arabic, a transcript editor (edit the video by editing its words; remove filler words, pauses and retakes), an AI assistant that edits from plain-language requests, AI dubbing into English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese and Korean, a publish kit (titles, description, chapters, hashtags, show notes, social posts), slide presenting with the camera (PDF decks, five layouts), camera looks (lighting, background blur, frames, name tag), AI voiceover, long-video-to-shorts, a stock library, green screen, background removal, keyframes, share links with chapters, and timeline export to Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve (FCPXML / XML / EDL / OpenTimelineIO) plus SRT / WebVTT. Exports are MP4 up to 4K, rendered on the user's own computer. Anyone can start with a free account (no credit card) at https://cutluma.com/login?mode=register. Free vs paid: the editor, design tools, recorder, most templates, stock media and export are free (Free: 720p with a small watermark, videos up to 10 minutes, 10 exports a month, files up to 250 MB kept 30 days). Starter ($9/mo, $84/yr) removes the watermark and the limits, exports 1080p at 60 fps and adds the brand kit, version history and bulk export. Pro ($19/mo, $180/yr, 7-day free trial) adds 4K, premium templates and fonts, scheduled social posting and Premiere / Final Cut / DaVinci timeline export. Business ($39/mo, $360/yr) adds every AI feature (captions, translation, voiceover, dubbing, Magic Clips, edit as text, the AI assistant, publish kit, Magic Design/Media/Edit/Write, text to video, AI shorts, product ads, AI guides, hub AI answers) with 100 hours of AI time a month, CutLuma Studio (/studio) with $10 of generation credit a month (or the user's own fal.ai key), and client approval links. AI features use one monthly meter, "AI time". ## Features - CutLuma Studio: watch your film before you pay for it: Describe a film in any language. An AI director plans the shots, the look and the lines on screen, every shot gets a still frame, and pressing play shows the whole film moving. A budget slider then decides which shots become real AI video with Google Veo 3.1 Lite, Gemini Omni Flash or Veo 3.1. Films run up to about 3 minutes and 30 shots, grouped in scenes. Replace mode swaps one thing in a video you already have: a product, an object or a building in drone footage. Open the result in the editor as a normal project. Part of the Business plan, with $10 of generation credit every month: a frame costs 5¢ and video starts at 30¢ for a 4-second shot. - Magic Clips: a link in, viral shorts out: Paste a YouTube link, upload a file or pick one of your videos, choose the part to use and press one button: on one screen the video is fetched, the AI understands it first (topic, genre, the stories told, who speaks), cuts the moments that tell a whole story — a question with its answer, a story to its lesson, even stitched from two parts of the video — scores each one, then edits and renders every clip to MP4, ready to download one by one or together as a ZIP with its post copy. Arabic is understood as it is spoken: dialects, sentences without punctuation, and Quran verses and hadith kept whole. The style fits the video by itself: Serene for Islamic talks (calm gold captions, nature sounds or your own nasheed instead of music, silence under every verse), Podcast, Explainer, Cinematic, Viral or Clean. Each clip gets the camera on whoever is talking (or split screen), zooms with a riser and a boom on the payoff, a cold open, name tags, AI pictures or free stock photos over the talk, filler words and pauses cut, captions with the key words coloured (plus a second language), emoji and big-number pop-ups, music picked for the genre that ducks under speech, sound effects, film grain or a vignette, your brand kit, an end card, three headline options, sounds to add when you post, a designed cover on the first frame (so TikTok and Reels show it as the cover), the editor’s own text styles, caption effects, film colour grades, transitions and your saved templates as intro and outro, and a title, caption and hashtags for every clip to copy into TikTok, Shorts or Reels while it renders. Results stay on your device, Find more looks again, a highlight reel joins the best lines, and clips can be numbered as a series. 9:16, 4:5 or 1:1. Part of the Business plan, with every other AI tool. - Your first 3 shorts are free: Every account gets one free Magic Clips run: paste a link or upload a video, and up to 3 shorts come back edited and captioned from up to 10 minutes of it, in 720p with the watermark. - Subtitles that read right, in any Arabic dialect: Long speech is cut at natural pauses so no word is split, the language is settled after listening, and AI then checks every word: misheard words, spelling, hamzas and punctuation, keeping the dialect exactly as it was spoken. Every Magic Clip has its own subtitle corrector, and each word stays timed to the voice. Part of the Business plan. - Just this video: no watermark for $4: Only need one video? Pay once to export it in Full HD without the watermark, with no subscription. Export it again up to 3 times in a week, and the $4 comes off your first payment if you subscribe within a month. - Guides: a recording in, a step-by-step guide out: Record a task on your screen once. CutLuma finds every click, takes the screenshot just before it, circles what you clicked and lays out the steps (2 guides free, unlimited from Starter); on the Business plan AI writes them from what you said, as a how-to, an SOP, a training lesson with a quiz, release notes and more. Edit it like a document, add arrows, boxes and blurs, translate it into 35 languages, and share a link or export PDF, Word, Markdown or HTML. - Knowledge hub with AI answers: One branded help centre for your guides and videos. People search it or ask a question and get an answer that cites the step, or the exact second of the video. Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants connect to the hub through its own MCP address. It also lists the questions it could not answer, so you know what to record next. - Text to video: Type a topic: AI writes the script, makes a picture for each scene, reads it aloud and adds captions. - Magic Design: Describe your video in one sentence. AI picks four matching templates and writes every line for your topic. - Magic Media: Type what you want to see and AI makes the picture — photo, 3D, illustration, anime, watercolour and more. - Magic Edit: Change a photo by asking: a new background, night instead of day, another colour. The rest stays as it was. - Magic Resize: Turn a Reel into a YouTube video or a square post. The design re-arranges itself — no cropping, no squashing. - Magic Write: Make any text catchier, shorter or more formal, translate it, or rewrite a whole design for a new topic. - Translate a whole video: Every text on screen and every caption translated in one click, into 17 languages, with fonts that fit the new script. Translate this video, or get one copy per language at once. - The editor in 8 languages: Use CutLuma in English, Arabic (right to left), Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Turkish or Indonesian. Pick yours from the globe menu. - Magic Animate: Animate the whole design in one of nine styles. Every element enters in reading order, staggered for you. - Auto reframe: Filmed wide, posting tall? The camera finds the people and follows them — holds, glides and cuts with the shot. - Edit video as text: Transcribe once, then edit by editing the words: delete a sentence and it is cut from every track. One click removes um/uh, long pauses and repeated takes. - AI assistant: Tell the editor what you want — “add captions, cut the pauses and make it 9:16” — in English, Arabic or Spanish. It does it, explains what changed, and one Undo takes it all back. - Edited by your AI agent: Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any agent that speaks MCP. It reads your timeline, cuts, adds titles and captions and places clips with the same commands the editor uses, looks through your footage and reads what is said in it before it cuts, checks its own work on frames, and exports with a share link. Every change is one Undo. - Colour grading and scopes: Grade any clip like a colourist: camera log to normal video, exposure and white balance, three colour wheels, curves, one-colour corrections, film looks and your own .cube LUTs, with grain, halation and vignette to finish. Waveform, RGB parade, vectorscope and histogram show what you are doing; auto colour and shot match do the first pass. - Pro trim tools, markers and source viewer: Ripple, roll, slip and slide trims with a frame readout, J K L shuttle, timecode and named markers bring frame-accurate editing to the timeline. A source viewer lets you mark In and Out on any file, then insert or overwrite just that part at the playhead. - Mixer, EQ and loudness: Mix every track with faders, pan, mute, solo and live meters, shape any clip or track with a drag-the-curve EQ and a compressor, and keep the master under a true-peak limiter. One click sets the whole video to the loudness YouTube, TikTok, podcasts or broadcast ask for, and the mix or its stems export as WAV. - Multicam and sync by sound: Line up two or more cameras, or a camera and a separate sound recorder, by their sound in one click. Then cut between the angles live with the number keys, or let CutLuma follow whoever is speaking; every cut can be moved later because no footage is cut up. - Import timelines, captions and stills: Bring an edit in from Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or any EDL / OpenTimelineIO tool: CutLuma relinks the clips to your media, shows what matched and what was left out, and rebuilds the timeline in one undoable step. Subtitle files become styled captions, and any frame exports as a full-size PNG or JPEG. - Compound clips: Collapse a scene, an intro or a title sequence into one clip, then move, trim, speed up, crop, grade and fade it as a whole. Open it to edit inside; place it again and every copy follows the change. - Masks, colour windows and adjustment layers: Cut any clip to a soft-edged rectangle, ellipse or pen shape, or use the shape to grade just one part of the picture — a brighter face, a darker sky — and have it follow the face through the shot. Stack corrections on a clip, keyframe any grade value, and drop an adjustment layer over several clips to grade them all at once. - Stabilise, smooth slow motion and picture clean-up: Steady shaky footage with one click, from taking out the tremble to a shot that looks locked off on a tripod. Slow a clip down without the stepped look, and take out grain and flicker or add sharpness. - Publish kit: One click after the edit: AI writes 5 titles, a YouTube-ready description with chapters, hashtags, show notes, posts for X, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok, thumbnail text and a readable document of what was said. - Channel Network: run niche channels as a business: Run several short-video channels from one dashboard, each a niche on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and Facebook Reels. AI suggests niches and writes a setup kit for each one (name and handle ideas, a bio sized for every platform, the profile picture, a pinned first video, content pillars, 3–5 recurring series, ways to earn and a 30-day launch plan), then fills a content calendar with ideas, hooks and scripts. Each idea opens in the editor as a narrated video, a template, clips from your long videos or a recording, and the finished video is scheduled to TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and Facebook from the calendar. Start from scratch, or connect an account you already have: CutLuma reads its followers, views, likes and comments every day, and AI audits what works and what to fix. Analytics show follower growth, views, engagement, the best days and times to post, which video lengths and series do best, and every video sorted by views, and they fill in each channel’s progress toward the platforms’ payout programmes next to your own affiliate and sponsor income. Agencies run client channels with an approval link the client opens without an account, and a monthly report. - AI dubbing: Translate what is said and re-voice it with an AI voice timed to the original — natural voices in English and Spanish, basic voices in French, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. The original is ducked or muted; translated captions optional. - Polish the narration: Recorded it in one take, ums and all? AI rewrites what you said into a clean script, you review it, and a natural voice reads it in sync with the video. English and Spanish voices, basic voices in four more languages. - Design like in Canva: Type straight on the video, select several things, group, align, snap to smart guides and copy a style. - Style Studio: one click, a whole new look: Over 120 GPU effects tried live on your own frame, over 80 real transitions where both clips play through the cut, whole-video styles that set colour, effects, cuts, titles and captions together, layered text styles and caption styles with sweep, marker and one-word modes. - Text effects: Shadow, 3D block, outline, hollow, splice, echo, glitch, neon and background — one click, then fine-tune. - Draw on the video: Pen, marker and highlighter straight on the canvas. Strokes become shapes that can draw themselves in. - Charts, icons & grids: Animated charts from your numbers, 1,900 icons, moving stickers, photo frames and collage grids. - Device mockups: Drop a screenshot or clip into a phone, laptop, tablet, browser, monitor or polaroid frame. - QR codes: Type a link, pick the colours, and a scannable code lands on your design. Change the link any time. - Colours in this design: Recolour every use of a colour at once, apply your brand colours or shuffle a whole palette. - Photo & video effects: Duotone, noir pop, pixelate, vignette, VHS, glitch, mirror and film grain — on photos and videos alike. - Audio visualizer: Bars, waves, circles and dots that dance to the real sound of your project. - Layers panel: See everything on the canvas as a list. Drag to reorder, lock or hide anything in one place. - Version history: Go back to how your video looked an hour or a day ago, and restore it in one click. - Studio screen recorder: Record screen, camera bubble and mic together. Smooth auto-zoom with motion blur, silence removal and a beautiful frame — edited for you. - Chrome extension recorder: Record any tab, window or your camera from the toolbar. The video uploads while you record, ready to edit. - A cursor you can resize after recording: Record a tab with “Record this tab” in the Chrome extension: the video keeps every frame, even of heavy 3D pages, and CutLuma draws the cursor itself from the real mouse. Make it bigger or smaller, pick a dark, light or dot look, smooth out shaky moves, hide it while the mouse rests, add click ripples, a highlight halo and motion blur — at any time after recording. Smart zoom and step-by-step guides use the real clicks too. - Present your slides: Import a PDF deck, pick a layout — corner bubble, side by side, presenter first, stacked, slide only — and record yourself talking through it. Every slide change and chapter lands on the timeline as editable clips. - Camera looks: Make the webcam look good before you record: auto lighting, warmth, skin smoothing, blurred or virtual background, frame shapes, border, logo, a name-tag lower third and an away screen — eight presets, save and share your own. - AI auto-captions: Turn speech into stylish subtitles in seconds, in 17 languages including Arabic. - Arabic & right-to-left done right: Lines, punctuation and word highlights flow right to left, with more than 30 Arabic fonts and ready-made Arabic templates. - Auto montage: Drop in photos, clips and a song — get a finished video cut on the beat, in six looks, starting at the song’s best part.

Search, click, it is on your timeline. - AI voiceover: Type a script and pick one of 17 natural voices. Narration without a microphone, in six languages. - Keyframe animation: Move, grow, turn or fade anything over time. Set two points and it animates between them. - Green screen & background removal: Key out a green backdrop, let AI cut you out of any webcam shot, or click what to keep in a photo. - Text behind you, or behind anything: Put a title, a caption or a sticker behind the person in the shot: they stand in front of the words, the way reel openers do it. For a building, a car or a mountain, click around it and the words pass behind it and follow the camera move. - Highlight and follow: Circle a player, box a detail, point an arrow, pin a name tag, hold a zoom lens or a blur on something: drag a box around it and the mark stays on it as it moves. Faces are found and followed for you. - Subject effects: The person treated apart from the room: colour pop on a black-and-white background, a portrait-lens blur, a dark stage, a sticker outline, a neon glow. One click, no green screen, and a freeze-frame intro that puts their name behind them. - Change a colour in the video: Click a shirt, a car or a wall and give it a new colour, keep only that colour while the rest turns black-and-white, or let it run through the rainbow. The change can fade in or wipe across the picture. - Caption translation: Captions in one language, translated into any of 35 with the timing kept. - Teleprompter: Your script scrolls next to the lens while you record. Look at the camera, never lose your place. - Clean, balanced sound: Background noise fades between words, and music lowers itself whenever someone speaks. - Instant share links: Share any video with a link. No downloads, no attachments — viewers just press play. - Templates & brand kit: Start from thousands of designed layouts in 15 languages (English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, Arabic, French, Japanese and more), then add your logo, colours and font in one click with the brand kit (Starter and up). Premium templates and fonts come with Pro. - Industry kits: Tools for real estate, construction and clinics: highlight a building on drone footage and it follows the camera move, listing cards, mortgage math, room-by-room tours, site outlines, progress trackers, date stamps, doctor lower thirds, disclaimers, appointment cards, document templates (floor plans, fact sheets, Gantt schedules, bills of quantities, medication schedules, lab results), a privacy blur and automatic face blurring that follows patients and bystanders — plus templates for each. - Your own templates: Save any design as a template and start the next video from it, on the dashboard or in the editor. - Video testimonials: Send customers a link. They record in their browser and the video lands in your library. - Multi-track timeline: Layer videos, images, text and music. Drag, trim and split with snapping that just works. - Beautiful titles: Stylish text presets with animations — pop, slide, typewriter and fade — in 222 fonts. - Filters & color: One-tap looks like Vivid, Vintage and B&W, plus fine control over brightness, contrast and more. - Any format: YouTube 16:9, TikTok & Reels 9:16, square, portrait.

Bulk export comes with Starter and up. - Post to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram & Facebook Reels: Connect your TikTok, YouTube channel, Instagram professional account or Facebook Page once, then post a finished video straight from the export screen, or schedule it and close the laptop: CutLuma uploads it for you. Choose who can see it, comments, Duet and Stitch, disclose brand deals, or send it to your TikTok or Facebook drafts to finish in the app. Bulk export and Magic Clips can send every video to TikTok too, each with its own publish kit caption, all at once or spread out over the day. - Watermark designer and ending card: The CutLuma watermark the way you want it: eight styles (glass pill, wordmark, brand tag, creator credit with your @handle, stamp, edge ribbon, proof pattern, logo only), nine positions or one that moves from corner to corner, three sizes, light, dark or yellow, a shimmer or a pulse, and an ending card that plays after the video, the way CapCut signs its videos. Free exports carry the watermark and you choose how it looks; on paid plans it is off until you switch it on, for one video or for all of them. - Send to Premiere, Final Cut & Resolve: Hand your cut to Final Cut Pro (FCPXML), Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve (XML), OpenTimelineIO or EDL as a ZIP with every media file, plus SRT, WebVTT and transcript downloads.
