ClipKit is the privacy-first video utility for iPhone and Mac. Every operation runs locally on your device, on the Apple Neural Engine and Apple silicon — no servers, no uploads, no accounts. EIGHT ONE-TAP TOOLS • Social Ready — auto-trim silence, reframe to 9:16, and normalize audio for vertical platforms. • Neural Captioning — generate accurate, on-device subtitles and burn them in, or save an .srt sidecar. • Studio Voice — strip wind, traffic, and hiss to bring vocals forward. • Privacy Redaction — automatically detect and pixelate every face, frame by frame. • Metadata Scrubber — strip GPS coordinates, device names, and EXIF data with one tap. • ProRes Compressor — convert massive 4K ProRes files to high-quality HEVC at hardware speed. • Instant Recap — pick the best moments from long footage and assemble a 15-second teaser. • Background Magic — blur or replace the background using on-device person segmentation. PRIVACY BY DESIGN ClipKit works fully offline. Drop it into airplane mode and every feature still works. There is no telemetry, no cloud, no analytics. Your videos never leave your hardware. SECURE VAULT Save processed clips into a biometric-locked vault, encrypted with CryptoKit AES-GCM and a key gated by Face ID, Touch ID, or your Mac's biometrics. FOUR WAYS IN Pick from Photos, choose a file, drag-and-drop on Mac, or share a video from any other app. ClipKit handles the rest. Built natively for Apple silicon. Optimized for iOS 18 and macOS 15.

Your phone's storage is full and that 4K clip won't send. Video Compressor fixes both in seconds. Pick any video, choose how small you want it, and see the new size before you even start. Then save it back to your library or share it anywhere, with no quality you can see lost, no watermark slapped on top, and nothing uploaded to some stranger's server. Everything happens right on your iPhone. Tap one preset for a quick result, or open Advanced to dial in exactly what you want. SIMPLE: ONE TAP • High, Medium, or Low quality. Pick the trade-off and you're done. • Smart auto-tuning: screen recordings stay crisp, camera footage stays natural. • See the projected new size, and how much smaller it'll be, before you compress. ADVANCED: FULL CONTROL • Resolution up to 4K, or keep the original. • Choose your codec: H.265 for smaller files, H.264 for maximum compatibility. • Cap the frame rate (30/60 fps), switch the container (MP4/MOV), or drop the audio track. BATCH IN ONE GO • Select a stack of videos and compress them all at once. • Walk away, and every clip lands back in your library when it's done. FAST, PRIVATE, NO WATERMARK • On-device encoding with Apple's own video engine, so it's quick and battery-friendly. • Nothing ever leaves your phone. No account, no cloud, no tracking. • Never a watermark on your video. It stays yours. FREE TO START Your first compression is free. Upgrade to Video Compressor Pro for unlimited compressions and unlimited batches. VIDEO COMPRESSOR PRO • Unlimited compressions, so you never hit the free limit again. • Batch unlimited videos at once (the free plan covers up to 3).
