Does CalmClip upload my video to a server?

No. CalmClip processes everything entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly. Zero bytes of your video are ever sent to any server. Your files stay on your device at all times.

Is CalmClip free to use?

Yes. CalmClip is completely free. No account, no subscription, no hidden fees. Open the site and start editing immediately.

What video formats does CalmClip support?

CalmClip supports MP4, MOV, WebM, and MKV files. All editing and export happen locally in your browser using FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly.

How does AI transcription work without uploading my video?

CalmClip runs the Whisper speech recognition model locally in your browser via WebAssembly. The AI model downloads once and runs entirely on your device, so your audio never leaves your machine.

Can CalmClip handle large video files?

Yes. Because CalmClip processes files locally using FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, it handles large files (1 GB and above) without upload delays. Editing starts immediately after you select the file.

Does CalmClip require an account or login?

No. CalmClip requires no account, no login, and no registration. Open the site, drop your video, and start editing.

How does CalmClip detect silence?

It analyzes the audio waveform in your browser and finds segments below a decibel threshold you control.

Will it cut too aggressively?

The minimum gap setting controls this. Set it high enough that natural breath pauses are not cut.

Does it affect video quality?

No. CalmClip uses stream copy mode for cuts that align to keyframes, and only re-encodes when necessary.

Can I preview the cuts before exporting?

Yes. The detected silence segments are shown on the timeline before you export. You can adjust the threshold and re-scan as many times as you need.

Does silence removal require Pro?

No. Basic silence removal is available on the free plan.

Can I combine silence removal with other edits?

Yes. Trim, resize, normalize audio, and remove silence all apply in a single export pass.
