About

VeeJam

Read full description

VeeJam is a new-generation video editing app with a video sampler. With one music track and two videos, you can create a single video almost like playing an instrument. With typical video editing apps, arranging clips on a timeline can get tiring, and it’s easy to lose the fresh feeling you had when you first captured those moments. That’s why we made VeeJam. VeeJam has no timeline — only the moment. VeeJam is built around live editing, so it doesn’t focus on detailed edits like fades or text captions. Even so, we think video editing professionals can use it intuitively for quick pre-editing on iPhone or iPad, right after shooting. It also includes features for professional users, such as external monitor output via USB-C and export to Adobe Premiere. Mute the noise and experience a new generation of video editing.
