Torchio
Available for Windows, macOS & Linux

Cut, clip, and convert.

No account. No uploads. No cloud. Just your videos, on your machine. The fast, offline video converter that respects your privacy.

The Editor

Cut once, export many.

The app is built around one idea: make cutting videos fast. Drag through the timeline to select what you want to keep. Need multiple clips? Just keep adding them.

Auto scene detection

One click detects all scene changes and creates cuts automatically. Hours of footage, trimmed in seconds.

Dead simple interface

No learning curve. Beginners get started in seconds, pros get the speed they need. Just drag, cut, export.

Multi-clip workflow

Create as many cuts as you want from one video. Each cut gets its own color in the timeline.

Batch export

All clips export at once as separate files. Queue them up, walk away, done.

GIF & WebP

Instant animated exports.

Turn any video clip into an animated GIF or WebP in seconds. Select the moment, pick your format, set your target file size, export. Done.

Smart file size targeting

Need it under 8MB for Discord? 10MB for a forum? Just set the number and Torchio handles the rest.

WebP support

Get smaller files with better quality. Modern browsers love it, and so will your upload speeds.

GIF for everywhere

Classic GIF format works everywhere. Maximum compatibility when you need it.

Chapters

MKV chapter markers.

Add named chapter markers anywhere in your video. When you export to MKV, these become real chapter markers that viewers can use to skip between sections.

Click to add

Drop a marker at any point in your video. Name each chapter in the sidebar — Intro, Round 1, Final Boss, whatever.

Visual timeline markers

Markers show as red dots on the timeline so you always know where your chapters are.

Built-in navigation

Exported MKV files have real chapter navigation. Great for tutorials, gameplay, or any long-form content.

Export Formats

One video in, any format out.

Set a target file size and Torchio figures out the rest. It remembers your preferences per format, so you're not re-entering settings every time.
