Cut a Video Online
To cut a video online, upload it below, drag the two trim handles around the section you want to keep, and download the result — no software, no account gymnastics, done in your browser. Because the tool uses stream copy instead of re-encoding, even long clips finish in seconds.
Most online cutters silently re-encode your footage, which softens the image and can take minutes per clip. Stream copy avoids that entirely: the frames you keep are byte-for-byte identical to the original, so a fifth cut looks exactly like the first upload.
How it works
- 1
Upload your video
Drop any file up to 500 MB — MP4, MOV, screen recordings, phone footage. The visual trimmer loads a preview with a filmstrip so you can see where to cut.
- 2
Drag the trim handles
Move the start and end handles to frame the section you want. The timestamps update live, so you can cut precisely without guessing at numbers.
- 3
Download the cut clip
Hit process and grab your file. Stream copy skips re-encoding, so the export is nearly instant and the picture quality is untouched.
Why use Video-Matic
Truly lossless cuts
Stream copy keeps the original video data intact — no re-encode, no generation loss, no softened image.
Seconds, not minutes
Skipping the re-encode step means even a large file is cut almost instantly in the cloud.
No watermark on output
Your downloaded clip is clean — nothing stamped on it, ready to share or edit further.
Files gone in 24 hours
Uploads and results are auto-deleted within 24 hours from EU servers in Paris, GDPR-friendly by design.
Frequently asked questions
Does cutting a video online reduce its quality?›
Not here. Video-Matic trims using stream copy, which extracts the selected section without re-encoding a single frame. The output is identical in quality to the source. Tools that re-encode always lose a little sharpness; stream copy avoids the problem completely.
Is it free to cut a video?›
Yes — signing up gives you 3 free credits, and a trim costs 1 credit, so you can cut three videos at no cost. If you need more, one-time credit packs are available on the pricing page. There is no subscription requirement.
How large can my video be?›
You can upload files up to 500 MB per video. That covers most phone recordings, screen captures, and downloaded clips. If your file is bigger, compress it first or trim a shorter source export before uploading.
What happens to my video after I cut it?›
Both your upload and the trimmed result are automatically deleted within 24 hours. Processing happens on EU-hosted servers in Paris, and files are never shared or used for anything besides producing your download.
