Edit on the Spot Launches Qcut, a Private Browser-Based Video Editor Without Commitments

Announcement posted by Edit on the Spot 09 Feb 2026

Edit on the Spot launches Qcut.app, a free, browser-based video editor. The tool offers 12 features like trimming and conversion with total privacy, requiring no downloads, accounts or watermarks.

SYDNEY, Feb. 9, 2025 — Edit on the Spot, a developer of specialized media solutions, today announced the debut of Qcut, a web-based video editor that prioritizes user privacy and efficiency. The platform, available at Qcut.app, enables users to execute professional-grade edits directly within a browser, eliminating the need for software installations, account registrations, or costly subscriptions.

While conventional online editors often require users to upload sensitive files to third-party servers, Qcut utilizes a local-processing architecture. This ensures that video data remains on the user's device and is permanently cleared once the session ends—a critical feature for corporate, legal and educational professionals handling confidential content.

"Qcut exists because editing a video shouldn't require installing software, creating an account, or giving up your privacy," said Martin Renaud, co-founder and Product Owner at Edit on the Spot. "We wanted something fast, simple, and trustworthy — so we built it."

The suite features 12 essential functions, including precision trimming, multi-format conversion and audio extraction. By bypassing the traditional cloud-upload model, Qcut allows marketers, podcasters, and event teams to produce high-resolution exports instantly and without the branding constraints typical of free software.

Experience the tool at Qcut.app.
