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.
