Make a video

Updated November 10, 2026

Cloud Video by MyCloudSuites is a free video editor in your browser, at mycloudsuites.com/apps/video. It’s in beta: it works, and we update it often while we finish it. If something isn’t right, tell us what you find.

Your clips stay on your computer: editing and exporting happen there, and nothing is uploaded unless you save to MyCloudSuites or share a link.

Start a project

  1. Open Cloud Video and sign in with your free account.
  2. Choose File › New project…, then Blank, or start from Slideshow, Promo or Vlog and pick your files. Templates are a start: everything stays yours to change.

Add your clips

Choose File › Import media…, or Import media… on the Media tab. Phone footage, screen recordings, pictures and sound all work. Drag clips from the Media tab onto the timeline.

Edit on the timeline

  • Cut a clip: move the playhead and choose Split, or press S. The Blade tool (B) cuts where you click.
  • Trim: drag a clip’s edge.
  • Remove: Delete leaves a gap; Ripple delete closes it.
  • Transitions: select a clip, open the Transitions tab and choose one, such as Cross dissolve. Its length is under Transition in on the right.
  • Titles: choose Titles › Add title, or press T, then pick a style on the Text tab. Change the words, look and animation on the right.
  • Captions: on the Text tab, Add a caption, Import .srt or .vtt…, or let Auto captions write them (see the AI tools).

Save your project

Cloud Video saves your project in this browser by itself a moment after each change; the name at the top says Saved. File › Open project… lists what’s saved here.

With MyCloudSuites Plus, File › Save to MyCloudSuites keeps it in your MyCloudSuites files, to open anywhere with File › Open from MyCloudSuites….

Export

  1. Choose Export, or File › Export….
  2. Pick a preset, such as YouTube or TikTok, Reels, Shorts, or choose the format (MP4, HEVC, WebM or GIF), size (720p, 1080p or 4K) and frame rate yourself.
  3. Choose how captions come out: burned in, as a separate .srt file, or off.
  4. Choose Export. The video is made on your computer and downloaded.

With Plus, Share at the top makes a link anyone can download the video from. Cloud Video makes a 1080p MP4 here and keeps it in your MyCloudSuites files, where it counts toward your storage. You can choose when the link expires, update the video after more edits, or Stop sharing.
