Everything you need

A real editor, running in a single tab

Multi-track timeline, live filters, text overlays, hardware-accelerated export. All powered by the Canvas API, Web Audio, and MediaRecorder — no backend required.

Drag & drop import

Drop MP4, WebM, or audio files onto the editor. Multiple files at once. Instant metadata, instant timeline.

Multi-track timeline

Layer video and audio freely. Mute, hide, and stack tracks with independent controls on every clip.

Trim, split, drag

Drag clips to move them. Grab the purple edges to trim in and out. Split at the playhead with one key.

Live color & filters

Brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, blur, grayscale, sepia — all applied live to preview and export.

Text overlays

Drop text anywhere on the canvas. Control size, color, and position with live preview and precise X/Y sliders.

MP4 / WebM export

Hardware-accelerated MP4 where the browser supports it, WebM fallback everywhere else. One click, no upload.

Private by design

Your footage never leaves your machine

Most editors ship your files to a server the moment you hit upload. Benzo Edit doesn't have a server. Everything — decoding, compositing, filtering, encoding — happens inside the browser tab.

No uploads, ever

Your files stay on your disk. Nothing is transmitted, cached, or logged anywhere off-device.

Instant start

No signup, no onboarding, no paywall. Open the tab and start cutting footage within seconds.

Works offline

Install the page as a PWA and keep editing on a plane, in a café, or on flaky hotel wifi.

Three steps

From raw clip to export in under a minute

No tutorials. No manuals. Just open the editor and go.

1 — Import

Drop a video onto the media panel. It lands on the timeline instantly with full metadata.

2 — Edit

Trim edges, split at the playhead, layer a soundtrack underneath, add text overlays, dial in the color.

3 — Export

Pick 720p or 1080p, hit Export, watch the progress bar. The file downloads straight to your device.
