ShootClip is a complete video editor for macOS — cut, grade, mix, and export with zero learning curve. AI speech-to-text turns every voice into spot-on captions, and the built-in MCP server lets Claude or any AI assistant edit right alongside you. Free to start.

FEATURES
Everything a pro timeline needs. Nothing it doesn't.
01
Metal-native engine
Real-time playback of 8K ProRes and RAW, tuned for Apple Silicon. No proxies unless you want them.

Magnetic timeline, pro trims
Ripple, roll, slip, and slide with frame-accurate keyboard control and instant audio waveforms.
03
Built-in MCP server
Expose your whole project to Claude or any MCP client. Every edit is scriptable, reviewable, undoable.
04
Text that moves
Standalone text tracks with 19 Canva-style animations — typewriter, burst, skate, roll, merge, and more.
05
Blur & censor layers
Drop blur, mosaic, or black-box clips on the timeline to cover anything, anywhere, for exactly as long as you need.
06
Export anywhere
H.264, HEVC, ProRes, and social aspect presets — rendered in the background while you keep cutting.
IN ACTION
Three features you have to see.
01 · AI OBJECT TRACKING
A censor that follows the subject.
Draw a blur over a face or a license plate once — the AI tracker locks on and follows it frame by frame. Gaussian, mosaic, or black box, it stays glued to the subject however the shot moves.
02 · TEXT BEHIND SUBJECT
Titles that live inside the scene.
ShootClip segments the person or object on every frame, so your text slides behind them automatically — the cinematic layered look with zero manual masking or rotoscoping.
03 · AUTO CAPTIONS
Captions that write themselves.
One click turns speech into styled, frame-accurate captions — AI transcription built in, no API key needed. Pro includes 300 minutes of video every month.
