Why Piktochart Video is an excellent Kapwing alternative?

Lets you edit videos like a text document

Video editing with Piktochart Video is so easy that anyone who has ever edited a text document can do it. Unlike Veed, Piktochart Video is not a timeline-based video editor. Piktochart Video automatically transcribes your videos in over 60 languages and lets you easily cut out any filler words by editing the transcript of your audio. Share your video with captions or export just the subtitles as .srt, .vtt, or .txt file and add them to your YouTube video or copy your transcript and use it as a draft of your blog post.

Retains original video format, quality, and size

If you read Kapwing reviews online, you will notice that a commonly mentioned constraint is that Kapwing limits free users to a max of 250MB of uploaded video size and no more than 7 minutes of exported video length. Piktochart Video does not limit the video upload size or the export quality. You can upload videos in any format and file size. Piktochart Video will keep the original video quality when you are ready to export it.

Supports video upload from Zoom & Google Drive

Piktochart Video integration for Zoom and Google Drive lets you import your selected Zoom recordings or videos from cloud-based file storage directly into the video editor. This option vastly speeds up the video creation and video editing process. Once you import a selected Zoom recording, Piktochart Video will automatically transcribe it and create captions for it. Your video is now ready for editing, cropping, and sharing. That’s how fast it goes. Kapwing allows only import from Google Drive but does not offer direct integration with Zoom, so you will need first to download your stored Zoom recordings to your desktop and then manually upload them to Kapwing.
