Choose “Import from a link” inside the editor, drop in the URL, and hit Save. Confirm the fair-use notice and Clipnest pulls the file down.

Take surveySave any public video straight from your browser — then trim it, caption it, and send it wherever it needs to go.
By saving this video, you agree to the Fair Use Policy.
Choose “Import from a link” inside the editor, drop in the URL, and hit Save. Confirm the fair-use notice and Clipnest pulls the file down.
Keep the file as-is, or open it in the editor and use the full toolkit — trim, caption, colour, and export in the format you need.
Post the finished cut anywhere, or hand it off to a teammate with a link.
Pull videos from the platforms you already post on, on your phone, laptop, or tablet, in a single click. Clipnest grabs the file and hands it straight to the editor. No stamped-on watermark, no quality drop, no desktop install. Trim it, add images, audio, text, or captions in a couple of clicks.
Re-cut for the aspect ratio each platform expects — pick a preset in Settings and you are done. Keep in mind that most video-sharing sites only allow saving clips that are set to public. Make sure you have permission from whoever made the video before you edit or re-share it.
Clipnest saves a video the moment you hand it a link, so you can repurpose your own posts without hunting for the original file. Nothing is stamped over the frame and nothing is re-compressed — what comes down is what went up, in full resolution. Useful when a clip does well on one platform and you want a second cut for another.
Lay a voice track over any clip with Clipnest speech synthesis — no recording booth, no hired reader. Everything exports as mp4, which is what nearly every platform and media player expects, so uploads stop failing for reasons nobody can explain.
Around here we start layering in the detail — pull the highlights forward first…
Add to projectThe same workspace converts between AVI, MOV, WebM, and the rest, so you are not chaining three tools together to ship one clip. Sound effects, background beds, stills, captions, and a royalty-free library are all in the sidebar. Team plans add brand presets and the full stock catalogue — the pricing page has the breakdown.
Copy the video's public link, paste it into the field at the top of this page, and press Save. Clipnest fetches the file and offers it as a download or opens it in the editor.
Any tool that hands back the original file rather than re-encoding it. Clipnest passes the source stream through untouched, so a 1080p upload comes back at 1080p.
Yes. Clipnest runs entirely in the browser tab — Chromium, Safari, and Firefox all work, on desktop and mobile. There is no extension to install.
The same page you are on. Paste the link from your phone's clipboard and the saved file lands in your downloads folder or camera roll, depending on your OS.
The free tier covers clips up to 12 minutes with no account required. Longer files and batch saving are part of the paid plans.
Clipnest never adds one of its own. Removing a mark that belongs to someone else is a rights question, not a technical one — check with the creator first.
The captioning is the most accurate I have used, and that is the part I used to farm out. I can turn a raw interview into something publishable in about forty minutes now.
Marit HalvorsenWe were paying for three separate tools to do what this does in one tab. Our editors cut turnaround on social clips from two days to about four hours.
Devin OkonkwoClipnest does a great deal more than pull files down. It is a full editing workspace built for people who ship video weekly, whether that is their job title or not. Add captions so clips work with the sound off, drop in a voice track in another language, layer sound effects and stills, and pull from a royalty-free library of audio and footage.
