Tips

  • 0.5 to 1s fades suit most social clips.
  • Fade out on the last beat for a clean ending.
  • Use a fade in to ease into a hard opening shot.

Why it stays private

Supercut decodes, edits and exports your video entirely in your browser with WebAssembly. Your video files never leave your device. To plan the edit, the AI gets your request, the words said in your clip and its sound levels (both worked out on your device), and a few low-resolution frames only if you turn that on.

Frequently asked questions

How long should fades be?

0.5-1s works for most social clips. Longer fades (2-3s) feel more cinematic.

Can I fade in without fading out?

Yes. Specify “fade in only” or “2s fade out” independently.

Is my video uploaded?

No. Fade effects run entirely in your browser.
