Kapwing alternative with no watermark
Kapwing is a strong browser editor, but its free plan puts a watermark on every export, as of October 2026. If the watermark is the reason you are here, ClipFast is the straightforward alternative: no watermark on any tier, no login required, and your video is processed in your browser instead of uploaded to a server.

FAQ
Why switch from Kapwing to ClipFast?
The watermark. Kapwing puts a watermark on every free export, as of October 2026, and removing it starts at $16 per month. ClipFast never watermarks exports on any tier, needs no login, and processes your video in your browser instead of uploading it.
Do I need an account to use ClipFast?
No. Open the site, drop in a video, export. A free account (magic-link sign-in, no password) raises your limit from 3 to 10 exports a day, but it is optional.
Are my videos uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs in your browser with WebAssembly, so your video never leaves your device. Kapwing is cloud-based: your files are uploaded to its servers to be processed.
What does ClipFast Pro cost, and what do I get?
ClipFast Pro is $3.99 per month, or $24.99 for the first year on annual billing and $39.99 per year after that: unlimited exports, batch export, larger files, an ad-free experience, and searchable export history. The free tier stays free, with 3 exports a day and no login, or 10 a day with a free account.
What can ClipFast not do that Kapwing can?
ClipFast is a set of ten focused tools (trim, merge, compress, convert, and more), not a multitrack timeline editor. If you need layered timelines, team collaboration, or AI generation, Kapwing's editor is the fuller tool. If you need a fast, clean export, ClipFast is quicker.
