Free Clideo Alternative
Clideo is a popular online video editing suite with a straightforward trim/cut tool that supports all major formats including MP4, AVI, MOV, and WebM. The free version allows trimming videos up to 500MB, but all exports include a Clideo watermark unless you upgrade to Clideo Pro ($9/month). Videos are uploaded to Clideo's servers for processing, which may be a concern for users handling private or sensitive content. If you want watermark-free trimming with zero upload requirements and complete privacy, Fixie's Browser Video Trimmer offers a simpler, client-side alternative.

Why Choose Fixie?
Clideo offers a clean, user-friendly interface for trimming, merging, compressing, and converting videos. Its trim tool supports a wide range of formats (MP4, AVI, MOV, MPG, VOB, WebM, and more) and includes bonus features like format conversion and fade-in/fade-out effects. For users who want a one-stop shop for basic video editing tasks without installing desktop software, Clideo is a solid choice.
However, Clideo's free tier has two key limitations: a 500MB file size cap and a watermark on all exports. To remove the watermark and work with larger files, you'll need Clideo Pro at $9/month (or $6/month if billed annually). Additionally, all videos must be uploaded to Clideo's servers for processing, which means your content leaves your device and is subject to their terms of service and privacy policy. For users working with private footage or who prefer not to upload files to third-party servers, this is a significant concern.
Fixie's Browser Video Trimmer takes a radically different approach: everything happens in your browser using FFmpeg.wasm. Your video never leaves your device — no upload, no server processing, no privacy risk. There's no file size limit imposed by a server (only your browser's memory capacity), and no watermarks are ever added, regardless of how many videos you trim. We don't offer format conversion or fade effects, but if you simply need to cut a video segment quickly, privately, and for free, Fixie delivers a zero-friction experience with no compromises on privacy or output quality.
