Create TikTok videos you actually want to post 10x faster

Editing TikTok videos on a phone can be difficult for small or large edits—not to mention the amount of times a video editing app crashes as you edit. Kapwing’s TikTok Video Editor equips you with top-of-the-line video editing features to create videos for TikTok.

Whip up snappy TikTok videos to cover breaking news, storytimes, or narratives

Share breaking news or personal stories without having too many video drafts with stutters, filler words, or long silences. Instantly remove silences or pauses in a video you’ve just recorded with Smart Cut. Pull your viewers in with instant jump cuts without having to trim video clips yourself.

Resize videos for TikTok with preset sizes and AI

Turn horizontal videos into verticals fit perfectly for TikTok. Creating videos for TikTok is difficult enough, let alone editing, resizing, and repurposing video content for other platforms. Explore 100+ key features to speed up your TikTok video editing process.

Stand out on “For You” pages with engaging subtitles and realistic voice overs

Capture scrollers' attention on their "For You" page with pop art subtitles and human-like AI voiceovers. There's nothing like breaking through the noise of others' feeds.

How to Edit TikTok Videos

  1. Start a new project

    Open a blank canvas and upload videos to Kapwing. Alternatively, paste a link to a video to upload. Kapwing supports most video file formats including MOV, MP4, AVI, and more. 

  2. Edit videos for TikTok

    Use the TikTok safe zone or use the TikTok preset size to automatically fit your video to 9:16 aspect ratio. Apply subtitles and background music to your TikTok video to capture more viewers on their For You page. 

  3. Download and publish

    Once you're finished editing, export your project and download a file of your TikTok video. Share your new video directly to your phone using Airdrop or Google Drive and publish to TikTok.

Optimize your TikTok video editing flow to boost viewer and follower count

Make more TikTok videos without starting from scratch 

Kapwing’s AI Video Generator gives you a nearly-polished video with subtitles, seamless transitions, a voiceover, and background music to start with. 

Find the right words to say for your next TikTok

Overcome writer’s block and speed up your creative process with Kapwing’s AI Script Generator. In just a few clicks, get a rough draft that outlines your video and gives you a starting point. 

Turn 1 video into 5 videos for TikTok

Now, you can instantly make multiple videos from one longer-form video. Kapwing's new AI Video Highlights feature makes it easy for you to automatically find the key moments in a long video, allowing you to trim down your video and tailor it specifically for TikTok.

Add Subtitles
Generate and customizable captions that automatically sync to your video. Use our AI-powered tool to create a transcript of your video, and then customize your auto-synced subtitles to make them perfect for your content creation needs. Resize, swap out fonts, or add in professional animations and transitions - all your edits will instantly be applied to the entire video.
Smart Cut
Smart Cut automates your video editing process by detecting and removing silences from your video in a matter of seconds. You'll be saving hours of editing time and completing your rough cut faster than ever for talking head videos, recorded presentations, tutorials, vlogs, and more. Editing has never been so seamless.
Resizer
Repurpose videos faster and make them look more professional with our Resize Canvas feature! In just a few clicks, you can take a single video and adjust it to be the right size for every other platform, whether it's for TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, Linkedin, or somewhere else.
Background Remover
With Kapwing's smart background removal tool, you can isolate people from the background of a video for free, without a green screen. All it takes is a few clicks. Upload your content, select the Remove Background tool, and use the preview to choose the threshold that best works for you.
Clean Audio
Enhance your project’s audio in seconds with Kapwing. In one click, Clean Audio automatically removes background noise, corrects loudness, and helps reduce popping sounds in your audio and videos. To use it, simply upload a video or audio file, then select Clean Audio on the right side.
Collaborative editing
Work with your team directly in Kapwing. Create and edit content, then send it to share and collaborate with your teammates. Make team workspaces, comment in the editor, and work on videos together in real time or asynchronously.
Trimmer
Edit the length of your video clip by dragging the timeline handles or by using the Split tool. It’s never been easier to cut out silences, rearrange clips, or adjust the length of your audio to fit your video.
Waveforms
Kapwing's customizable waveforms let you bring your audio or podcast content to life. Our Waveform tool creates an automatically-generated, animated graph showing the frequency and amplitude of your audio over time. Choose between a classic waveform style and a stacked “bars” style to bring your own touch to your project.
Unlimited Overlays
Make your content pop with image overlays, emojis, progress bars, and audio waveforms. Then simply resize and position them to customize your project. With unlimited overlays, the possibilities are endless.

Best online video service ever. And a miracle for deaf people.
[Subtitler] is able to autogenerate subtitles for video in almost any language. I'm deaf (or almost deaf, to be correct) and thanks to Kapwing I'm now able understand and react on videos from my friends :)

Spend less time learning... and more time crafting stories.

By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a YouTube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.

Excellent subtitling features
[It] works perfectly for me. Have been using Kapwing for a year or so, and their automatic subtitle tool gets better and better every week, it's rare that I have to correct a word. Keep up the good work!
