MokaStudio is a full video editor that lives on your Mac. Cut a clip, add titles, layer effects, and export a finished file - without a subscription to a web app, without uploading a single frame, and without waiting on someone else's render queue.
No account, no cloud project, no upload. Your footage stays in the folder you left it in, the edit happens on your machine, and the file lands wherever you point the save dialog.
Highlights
- A real multi-track timeline - stack video, audio, text, and images; trim, split, ripple-delete, and snap edits into place instead of fighting a one-track trimmer.
- Titles that look designed - type on the canvas, pick from a real font library, and control colour, spacing, and alignment as you go.
- Effects, masks, and gradients - colour-grade a shot, mask part of the frame, or drop in a gradient background, all previewed live rather than after a render.
- Keyframe anything - move, scale, or fade an element over time by setting two points; MokaStudio fills in everything between them.
- Speed you can shape - slow a moment down, speed a stretch up, and hear the audio follow the change.
- Subtitles and stickers - caption a talking-head clip and drop in shapes or graphics without leaving the editor.
- Export the format you actually need - MP4 (H.264), MP4 (H.265), MOV (ProRes) for handing to a colourist, or WebM (VP9) for the web, at the quality you choose.
- Nothing leaves your machine - no upload step, no cloud storage bill, no wondering who else can see the footage.
How it works
Open MokaStudio, start a project, and drag your clips onto the media panel. Drop them on the timeline, cut where you want, and add whatever the piece needs - text, an effect, a caption. The preview shows the real thing as you work, not an approximation.
When it is ready, hit Export, pick a format and quality, choose where to save, and MokaStudio encodes it straight to that file. The first export sets up the encoder it needs - a one-time step the app walks you through - and everything after that goes straight to work.
Perfect for
- Creators cutting their own videos - YouTube, shorts, reels, and everything in between.
- Teams making internal videos - demos, training, and walkthroughs that should never touch a third-party server.
- Anyone tired of subscription editors - the same everyday editing, running locally, with no monthly meter.
- People handling sensitive footage - client work, interviews, or anything under NDA that cannot be uploaded.
