“No API or developer features. It's a consumer video editing tool, not a developer platform.”
“The best free video editor, period. Auto-captions, templates, and AI features that compete with paid tools.”
“ByteDance data concerns aside, the feature-to-price ratio is unmatched. Even the free tier is remarkably capable.”
