Mastershot Studio

A free Kapwing alternative with no watermark

Kapwing's help center says free-plan projects get a Kapwing watermark, can be exported up to 4 minutes long, and export in 720p. Removing the watermark means upgrading to Kapwing Pro. Mastershot Studio is a browser editor with no paid plan: no watermark, videos of any length, exports up to 4K, and automatic subtitles, background removal, Magic Cut, and clean audio at no cost. It has no templates, stock library, or team workspace, and it runs on a computer, not a phone.

Before you switch

What Studio doesn't have

  • A phone app. Studio needs a computer; on a phone, Mastershot's single-job tools (trim, crop, compress) still work.
  • Templates, memes, and a stock library. You bring your own clips, pictures, and sound.
  • Team workspaces and shared projects. Studio is for one person editing.
  • Opening Kapwing projects. Export the video from Kapwing and add that file to a Studio project.
