Cut videos for TikTok and Reels without waiting on a cloud render queue
You found the viral moment at 0:38 — but exporting it means uploading three minutes to a random trimmer?
Short-form platforms punish slow editors
TikTok and Reels reward the first frame. You need sub-second trims on hooks, not a production suite that imports your entire camera roll to a cloud timeline.
Online video trimmers expose your unpublished clips
Upload-to-trim sites are built for convenience, not creators:
- Sponsor drafts and face recordings sit on public queues
- Watermark exports unless you create an account
- Re-encode chains soften already-compressed phone video
- Vertical safe zones are guesswork without local preview
Trim and resize vertical clips locally
SnapKit uses FFmpeg in WebAssembly for frame-accurate cuts and 9:16 exports — your draft never leaves RAM.
Mark in and out on the hook
Use cut video to isolate the scroll-stopping opener.
Fit the frame for Reels and TikTok
Pass the clip through resize video for 1080×1920 without black bars.
**Your files never leave the browser.** SnapKit runs WebAssembly, FFmpeg, and Canvas directly in your RAM — instant speed, zero cloud uploads, and privacy you can actually trust.
