FilmCraft is a full desktop-class non-linear editor that runs inside your browser: nothing to install, no account to create. Runs in your browser. No FreeAIGeneration account required. ## Editor workspace The editor opens here, across the whole content width. Nothing is downloaded until you launch it. ## Compatibility Works in current desktop versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari. The engine starts on WebGPU where the browser offers it and on WebGL2 where it does not; the launch options let you force the WebGL2 renderer with software compositing, or CPU compositing — the slowest but most compatible path. A browser that offers neither shows a message instead of the editor. This is a single-threaded build, so very large projects are slower than the desktop app. - FilmCraft is in alpha: upstream measures about 86 % of the feature set as present, but only about 56 % as ready for real production work. Premiere .prproj projects cannot be opened yet — bring edits in as FCP7 XML, AAF or OTIO. - Media import was verified in-browser for PNG stills, PCM WAV audio and WebM/VP9 video on a timeline, and for H.264 MP4 export. ProRes, DNxHR, MXF, MPEG-TS, MJPEG and image sequences are documented upstream but were not tested in this version; real camera files and multi-gigabyte media are the least-tested path. - Codec support depends on your browser: supported codecs are decoded by the browser’s own WebCodecs decoder, and everything else goes through the decoders built into the engine. Matroska and WebM files import slowly because opening them scans the cluster headers. - Export means H.264 MP4 in practice: H.265 and AV1 export need a hardware encoder that browsers do not expose. Export is stepped (about 30 ms per interface frame), so a long timeline takes a while to finish. - The browser build is single-threaded, so the commands that need worker threads on the desktop — render previews, proxies, Project Manager and mask tracking — report an error instead of running. - Imported media stays readable only while the tab is open, unless the browser kept a copy in its own storage. FilmCraft writes a recovery journal every few seconds and copies imported media into browser storage (OPFS); clearing site data removes both, so export early and keep a backup of long edits. - Two optional extras — speech-to-text and narration voices — download models from Hugging Face after a confirmation dialog that names the source, the size and the licence. The editor itself makes no third-party requests while it starts, and the footage you open is decoded locally by your browser. This tool needs a current version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari with JavaScript enabled. ## Privacy The editor runs in your browser. FreeAIGeneration has no account system and stores no documents; see the privacy page for browser storage and third-party details. - [Privacy](https://freeaigeneration.com/en/legal/privacy/) - [Terms](https://freeaigeneration.com/en/legal/terms/) ## Upstream engine - **Engine:** filmcraft - **Version:** 0.6.0-faig.5 - **Licence:** MIT OR Apache-2.0 - [Source code](https://github.com/storytold/filmcraft) ## Tools - [Free Online Photo Editor](https://freeaigeneration.com/en/tools/photo-editor/): Edit photos in your browser with a real layer stack: adjustment layers, masks, layer styles, selections, type and vector shapes. Open PSD, PSB and common image formats, and save or export the result as a download. - [Free Online Vector Editor](https://freeaigeneration.com/en/tools/vector-editor/): Create a new document or open an SVG, PDF or .ai file, then edit real vector geometry: Bézier paths, shapes, type, gradients, clipping masks, layers, and boolean or Pathfinder operations. Saving and exporting use your browser’s normal download, as SVG, PDF, PNG, JPEG or WebP. The engine is compiled to WebAssembly and runs in your browser. - [Online RAW Photo Editor](https://freeaigeneration.com/en/tools/raw-photo-editor/): LightCraft is a complete RAW library and developer that runs in your browser. Import raw or JPEG files, adjust exposure, tone curves, the colour mixer, masks and crop, then export an image when you are done. Nothing to install and no FreeAIGeneration account required.
