All-in-one video editor with AI tools, very popular for social media content.
Updated: July 2026
CapCut is probably the most-used video editor among social media content creators: it started out tied to TikTok and today is a full tool for cutting, editing and adding effects to video, with templates built specifically for vertical format.
Its free plan is still surprisingly complete compared to other editors, with multi-track editing, chroma key and a large library of effects and music. Where it draws the most complaints is customer support and pricing changes that moved features that used to be free behind paid plans.
It has a functional free plan and monthly paid plans that remove the watermark and add more advanced AI features (like advanced auto-captions). Prices vary by region, so it’s worth checking directly in the app before subscribing.
