What is Clipchamp?

Create social ready videos fast with templates captions and brand kits inside the Microsoft ecosystem

Clipchamp brings approachable editing to the browser and Windows with drag and drop timelines, templates for reels and explainers, and built in screen or camera capture. Auto captions and text to speech accelerate draft creation, while brand kits keep fonts, colors and logos consistent across exports. A large stock library covers music, video and graphics, and cloud projects sync between devices. The free tier handles core editing; Essentials style premium features are now bundled with many Microsoft 365 Personal and Family plans, and also available as a paid add on. Exports cover common social formats, 1080p on free with higher quality and stock access on paid. For marketers, educators and SMBs already in the Microsoft stack, Clipchamp shortens the path from idea to shareable cut, with governance via shared brand assets and predictable costs.
