Why creators switch to EseCut
CapCut is a capable editor, but it wants you to install an app and, on some free templates, stamps a watermark on what you export. EseCut takes a different approach: the entire studio lives in your browser, so you can jump from a Chromebook, a work laptop, or a borrowed machine and pick up right where you left off — with clean, watermark-free MP4 files every time.
Everything you need for Shorts, Reels, and TikTok
- Auto captions chunked into punchy 3–4 word lines and sized for a 9:16 frame, with 21 animation styles.
- A 3D camera studio that adds cinematic depth to flat footage — something CapCut's timeline can't do.
- Motion presets and cinematic VFX that export exactly as previewed, so there are no surprises on render.
- Nothing to install or update — open a tab and your projects are there.
- Watermark-free HD export on the free plan, in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1.
Priced in plain USD
Start on the free plan and stay there for as long as you like. When you need 4K export, priority rendering, and premium VFX, Pro is $12/mo and Studio (team workspaces and API access) is $29/mo — clear, US-dollar pricing with no surprise add-ons. See the full breakdown on our pricing section, or learn how our auto-caption workflow keeps up with your cut.
