Layer in photos, video clips, animated GIFs, backgrounds, audio-reactive visualizers, and synced lyrics.
Adjust colors, add filters like VHS or glitch, key out a green screen, and fine-tune timing on the timeline.
Render straight to MP4 in 720p through 4K, or vertical/square formats for social — download and you're done.
A dozen-plus visualizer styles that pulse, glow, and move with your music's frequencies in real time.
Paste LRC-timed lyrics or tap along as your song plays. Choose from karaoke-highlight, smooth-scroll, and more display styles.
Layer in your own footage and images, crop and position them, and control exactly when each one appears.
Brightness, contrast, saturation and hue adjustments, plus built-in VHS, glitch, and light-leak looks.
Real green-screen removal for your video and image layers, with adjustable tolerance and edge feathering.
Full undo/redo history and an autosaved draft mean you can experiment freely without losing your work.
A clean, chrome-free playback view for OBS's own window or display capture to record through, if you'd rather stream your composition live than export a finished file first.
Yes. Cwtch.es is free to use, supported by ads rather than a subscription or paywall. There's no sign-up required to start editing.
No. Cwtch.es runs entirely in your web browser — there's nothing to download or install, and it works on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
You can upload MP3, WAV, or M4A audio, along with images, videos, and animated GIFs for your visuals.
Finished videos export as MP4 (H.264 + AAC), in 720p, 1080p, 4K, square, or vertical formats for social platforms.
Yes — click "OBS View" in the top bar once you have a project loaded. This switches to a clean, chrome-free view showing just your composition playing, which OBS can capture as a window or display source and record or stream through your own OBS setup. Press Esc at any time to return to normal editing. There's an optional Loop toggle next to the button if you want it to play continuously as a background visual rather than stop at the end.
No. All editing and rendering happens locally in your browser — your song and video files are never uploaded to a server.

We've noticed an ad blocker is active. Cwtch.es relies on ads to stay free — if you use the video editor or QR code generator with a blocker active, your export will include a small Cwtch.es watermark. Disable your ad blocker for this site (or add it to your allow-list) to avoid this.
