Hours become seconds
Manually hunting silences on a timeline is soul-crushing work. Croppa does it in seconds for every gap, every dead pause, all gone automatically.
Load footage from your phone
Shoot on mobile, process on your PC. A password-protected Cloudflare tunnel sends footage straight to Croppa - no cables, no cloud accounts.
Done before you look up
GPU-accelerated with NVIDIA NVENC, or falls back to CPU automatically. No settings. No credits. No queue. No waiting.
Your footage stays private
Everything runs on your machine. No cloud uploads, no account required, no footage ever touching a third-party server.
Pick up in your editor
Export a finished MP4 or a ready-to-open timeline for Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, LumaFusion or Shotcut with the cuts already done.

Questions
How much time does Croppa actually save?
For a typical talking-head or tutorial recording, manually hunting and cutting every silence can take 1–3 hours. Croppa does the same job in seconds. The longer and more rambling your raw footage, the more you save — and the more mental energy you keep for the creative work.
Does it upload my footage anywhere?
No. Everything runs on your Windows PC. Your files never leave your machine. The only network request is a one-time licence check when you first activate — after that, Croppa works entirely offline.
Which editors can I export to?
Adobe Premiere Pro (AEJSX script), DaVinci Resolve (FCPXML), LumaFusion, Shotcut (MLT XML) — or just a finished MP4 if you don't need to do anything else. Each export opens the cut timeline directly in your editor.
Do I need an NVIDIA GPU?
No — it's a nice bonus but not required. Croppa detects your hardware and falls back to CPU encoding automatically. It works on any Windows 10 or 11 PC.
Windows is warning me about the installer — is it safe?
Totally fine. Windows flags new apps that haven't yet built up a large download history. Click "More info" -> "Run anyway". Croppa only touches the internet once to verify your licence key, never again after that.
Is this really a one-time payment?
Yes. Croppa is currently at a launch price of £29.99 (full price £49). Pay once, keep it forever — including all future updates. No monthly fees, no usage limits, no surprise charges. I built this because I needed it myself.
