Free vertical video editor from the makers of TikTok
CapCut is free, runs on a phone or desktop, and every trending template lands here first. Auto captions are quick and accurate. Read the licence terms before using it for client work.
Our note
The best free video editor there is, with a caveat that has nothing to do with the software: it is owned by ByteDance, and the terms you agree to about your footage are worth ten minutes of reading before a client project goes through it.

One upload, published to every network at once
Repurpose.io watches a source, a YouTube channel, a TikTok account, a podcast feed, and republishes what appears there to everywhere else on rules you set once. It is plumbing rather than an editor: the clipping is basic and the point is that nobody has to download and re-upload anything. Plans are counted in connected accounts per network, so an agency running ten brands pays for ten.
Our note
This is plumbing rather than an editor, and it is worth being clear about which problem you have. If the clips are the problem, buy a clipper. If getting them to six places on a schedule is the problem, this is the cheapest way to stop doing it by hand.
