What you get with EseCut
- Native vertical projects — 9:16 is a first-class format, not a crop — safe zones and caption sizing handled for you.
- Captions made for TikTok — 3–4 word animated lines that keep muted viewers hooked, applied in one click.
- Hook tools — Motion presets like Slam In and Shock Pulse for the first-second punch your retention graph wants.
- SFX library built in — Pops, whooshes, and risers on the timeline — the polish layer top creators never skip.
- No watermark to hide — Clean exports mean platforms don't down-rank your video as recycled content.

FAQ
Common questions
What's the best free video editor for TikTok?
EseCut is built for vertical: native 9:16 editing, auto captions sized for phones, motion presets, SFX, and watermark-free exports — free in your browser.
Why does a watermark-free export matter for TikTok?
Platforms detect and down-rank videos carrying other apps' watermarks. EseCut's clean exports keep your content from being treated as a repost.
Can I edit Instagram Reels in EseCut too?
Yes — the same 9:16 project exports for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts, so one edit covers all three feeds.
