Cut and download YouTube clips in your browser

The YouTube Clip Cutter trims any YouTube video down to the exact seconds you need and saves that section as an MP4 video or an MP3 audio file. Paste a normal watch link, a Shorts link, or a youtu.be short link, drag the in and out points on the timeline, and download — no account, no software to install, and no watermark.

It's built for creators who need a highlight, a reaction, a quote, or a sound bite in a hurry. The cut is frame-accurate and doesn't re-encode the whole video, so clips are ready fast. Only clip content you have the rights to use.

Guide: How to cut a clip from a YouTube video

Frequently asked questions

Is it free?

Yes — cutting and downloading clips is completely free, with no signup and no watermark.

What's the maximum clip length?

There's no hard limit, but very long clips take longer to process. For best results keep clips under a few minutes.

Can I download just the audio (MP3)?

Yes. Switch the output to Audio · MP3 and you'll get an audio-only file instead of a video.

Why does processing sometimes take a while?

We fetch only the exact section you selected from YouTube, then trim it precisely. The first resolve step can take a bit; the clip still completes.
