CapCut is a full-featured video editor for mobile and desktop, popular for its trendy effects, templates, and easy social sharing.

About

CapCut

CapCut is TikTok’s editing sidekick, packed with free tools and viral-ready features. It works on both mobile and desktop, offering trendy effects, a massive music and sound library, and AI tools like auto-cutting, background noise removal, and those bold animated captions you see all over your feed. It’s fast, intuitive, and built to keep pace with the rhythm of social media.

But let’s be real—it’s made for short-form content. You won’t find deep color grading, multi-cam editing, or timeline finesse you'd expect in something like Premiere. And since it’s backed by ByteDance, folks with privacy concerns might raise an eyebrow. Some features also rely on a live internet connection, which can slow things down. That said, for quick-turn clips, reels, and TikToks, it delivers exactly what today’s creators need—fast, fun, and optimized for scroll-stopping content.

BIGVU is a teleprompter video app for coaches and educators, equipped with features for scripts, captions, and branding.

About

BIGVU

BIGVU is built for people who talk to cameras—and honestly, it shows. The killer feature? A teleprompter that actually works, so you can read your script while looking natural. Add automatic captions, replace your messy background, slap on your branding, and you've got professional-looking videos without the professional setup. Perfect for coaches, educators, or anyone doing lots of direct-to-camera content.

Where it falls short? This isn't your creative playground. The editing features are basic—enough to clean up your talking videos but not enough for storytelling or complex projects. It's laser-focused on making you look good on camera, not on crafting cinematic narratives. So what's your game: are you mainly talking to camera, or are you trying to be the next Spielberg? Coaches looking to scale their business might benefit from tools that go beyond teleprompters with features like AI script generation and automatic editing.

I'm not sure why people don't like it, but it's a very good editing app that isn't a "scam." You may need to pay for a subscription for some features, but I think it's worth it for the price. For example, I pay 50 dollars a year for it, and it's awesome.

Revised! I just went ahead and purchased Pro. So far big improvement. I really detest the way I got here. But I have to say working cross platform so far seems ok. I will revisit UX once I have used for a bit. I am improving rating to 4 stars. Saved me a fair amount of time.

Had it for years; not used for most years. Bought from Appsumo. Tried today and remembered why it sucks. Bad - sound lagging behind video. Automatic refresh WHILST YOU ARE RECORDING. Slow open. Avoid.
