What Maveform is
Maveform is a web app for finding short, shareable clips in long videos and preparing them for vertical viewing. It transcribes audio, tracks speakers, detects scene cuts and processes sentences in parallel. Semantic segmentation spots topic shifts and aligns suggested clips with sentence and scene boundaries. Face-locked reframing keeps a static crop for each scene. The editor has 12 caption presets, 9 effects, per-word highlighting and custom fonts.
You can upload common video formats such as MP4, WebM, MOV and MKV, with files up to about 6 GB. Exports are 9:16 at 1080x1920; higher resolutions are planned. The free plan is listed as free, billed Free forever. It includes unlimited videos, clips and exports, support for up to 6 speakers, all 12 caption presets, 9 effects and no watermark. Maveform says there is no daily quota or monthly clip-minute cap. Google OAuth is the only sign-in option. The company says most processing happens in the browser, and that it does not sell personal information, use it for advertising or train AI models on users’ videos, transcripts or clips. Help and bug reports are handled through Discord.
