Video editing is a very time-consuming task. It often takes 30-60 minutes to create a one-minute Instagram video. Therefore, I am always looking for video editing software that is easy to arrange.

FlexClip, which I will introduce in this article, is an online tool I recently tried. You can access it from your browser anytime and use it anywhere. It is compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux. You don’t need to download any heavy software to your computer. What’s more, you can output up to 1 minute without a watermark for free, so it’s perfect for those making Instagram videos and YouTube shorts.

What is FlexClip?

From what I’ve tried, FlexClip is an editing tool suitable for creating videos for SNS. And FlexClip can be opened from a computer browser, so more advanced editing is possible. Of course, if you are a beginner, there is also an intuitive and easy mode. FlexClip has several price plans, but even the free version allows you to search for royalty-free photos and videos.

Features of FlexClip

From here, we will introduce the features of FlexClip in detail. Let’s see FlexClip’s video editing features. Once you access the video editing screen on the website, you can create videos from scratch or via templates.

FlexClip video editing

The workflow brings up a video editing screen called a storyboard. Import and upload files from your computer, hard disk, and memory card. Of course, you can also explore content from FlexClip’s media library.

There are also valuable elements for editing! Post-production elements such as text, shapes, transitions, and other special effects can be inserted via drag and drop. It also has all the basic editing functions, as you can easily adjust the video’s speed, lighting, orientation, etc. What I especially liked when I tried it was the number of effects. Add effects to a static screen and it will instantly feel like TikTok.

FlexClip video trimming

You can trim a specific part in the video editing area by dragging the cursor. You can apply jump, vertical, horizontal, matching, smash, parallel, and cross cuts to achieve different styles.

FlexClip video integration

Easy video integration. Upload your videos and images all at once, arrange them in order, and you’re ready to go.

FlexClip video conversion

The video conversion is more than just changing file formats. With FlexClip, you can change the size and resolution of your video, as well as FlexClip’s video enhancer. Choose from custom sizes to fit a smartphone, tablet, and computer screen, and customize. You can also use this tool to reduce the video resolution for digital videos or photos that are too large.

With limited functionality, FlexClip has file compatibility for video editing, conversion, and compression. You can upload and export video and image file formats such as MP4, MOV, WAV, M4V, WEBM, JPEG, and PNG.

Royalty-free library

It’s a great feature to find video clips and photos with a keyword search quickly. If it’s audio-centric content, it would be easier to edit if there was a library. In addition, FlexClip’s dedicated music catalog contains popular BGM and is updated frequently, making it very convenient for YouTubers!

FlexClip includes thousands of free videos, photos, and music you can add to your storyboard. All these are royalty-free, so you can use them in your marketing and advertising videos without worrying about copyright.

Screen recording function

FlexClip’s screen recording tool is my favorite feature!

• Computer screen + face
• Computer screen only
• Only face

These three options are basically all which can record up to 30 minutes. You can then download the recordings to your computer and edit them as they are. In other words, when recording a class, you can also use FlexClip, which is very convenient!

FlexClip Pricing (free version available)

Free version restrictions:

• Video resolution is 480p
• The maximum video length is 1 minute
• Only one video can be inserted
• Cloud storage of up to 12 projects (created videos)

It is possible to try in advance what kind of condition it is. FlexClip offers a free version that anyone can get started with and three pricing plans (in US dollars) that vary depending on your needs. If you sign up for one year, the monthly fee will be as low as $5.99 (Basic). Of course, you can sign a yearly contract first, but if you are not confident that you can continue editing videos, a monthly contract is fine.

FlexClip’s business plan is a bit expensive compared to other video editors. Still, the lower plan is enough to make mini videos for social media, and you can start for free for Instagram videos! If you try FlexClip and are unsatisfied, you can get a 7-day refund.

Some people may have bought a high-spec PC and expensive editing software, but they didn’t feel motivated. It’s also essential to try before paying. Videos edited in the free version can be carried over to the paid version, so you can create work with enthusiasm. It’s a subscription, so if you don’t use it, you can stop it.
