Free alternative
A free Clideo alternative
An online video editor and a set of tools to cut, compress, merge, resize, subtitle and translate video, which runs in the browser and has an iOS app. Anyfile is a free alternative for many of the same jobs: it opens, edits and converts files in your browser, and nothing is uploaded.

When Clideo is the better choice
Clideo is the better choice if you want AI subtitles, video translation or text to speech, a multi-track timeline with text, stickers and transitions, 4K export or an iOS app. Anyfile has no AI features; it suits quick trims, crops and conversions where the video should stay on your device.
