Video Splitter, Cut One Video Into Multiple Clips, Free
Drop an MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV, split it into equal-length chunks or your own list of ranges, and download every segment separately or bundled into one ZIP. Powered by FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, it runs 100% in your browser. Your footage is never uploaded and the parts carry no watermark.
What is the video splitter?
The Video Splitter cuts one video into multiple clips, either equal-length chunks every N seconds or your own custom start-end timecode ranges. Download each part individually or grab them all as a ZIP. Accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and AVI. Free, running in the browser with no uploads, account or watermark.
The GigAI Video Splitter is built for the moment a single file needs to become several: a long recording that should ship as bite-sized parts, a compilation you want broken back into its scenes, or a big clip that has to fit under a per-file upload cap. Drop a video and it probes the file locally, reads the exact duration, and lets you choose how to cut it. Pick a chunk length, say every 60 seconds, and it slices the whole clip into consecutive equal parts, telling you up front how many segments that will make. Or switch to custom ranges and type a list of start–end timecodes (1:00-2:30, 4:00-5:15, and so on) to carve out only the pieces you care about, in the order you list them. When you run it, a self-hosted FFmpeg WebAssembly core re-encodes each segment for a clean cut on the exact boundaries you set, no snapping to the nearest keyframe, and a live progress bar tracks the whole batch part by part. The results land as a tidy grid: preview any segment inline, download them individually, or pull the entire set down as a single ZIP built in your browser. Because every frame is read and written on your own machine, personal recordings, client footage and anything under NDA never leave the tab, there's no upload bar reaching out to a server, no queue behind other people's jobs, and no watermark stamped across a single part. It's honest about the trade-offs, too: WASM FFmpeg is single-threaded and memory-bound, so cutting many segments re-encodes each one and is slower than a desktop app, it's happiest with inputs up to roughly a few hundred megabytes and a sensible number of parts. Close the tab and every trace is gone.

How to use the video splitter
- 1
Drop your video
Drag an MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV onto the workspace, or click to browse. It's read and probed locally. Nothing is uploaded.
- 2
Choose how to split
Pick a chunk length to cut the whole clip into equal parts, or switch to custom ranges and type your own list of start–end timecodes to extract only the segments you want.
- 3
Split & watch the batch
Hit Split and follow the progress bar as each part is cut. The first run also fetches the FFmpeg engine once, so give segment #1 a moment.
- 4
Preview & download
Play any part to check the cut, then download segments one at a time or pull the whole set down as a single ZIP, clean and watermark-free.
What Video Splitter includes
Equal chunks or custom ranges
Split into consecutive equal-length parts by setting one chunk length, or list your own start–end timecodes to extract exactly the segments you want. The tool shows how many parts you'll get before you run it.
Many clips from one file
A single video becomes an ordered set of numbered parts, each cut cleanly on the boundaries you set. Every segment is a real, standalone file you can share, upload or edit on its own.
Download each part or one ZIP
Grab any single segment from the results grid, or bundle the whole set into one ZIP built right in your browser. No server round-trip, no per-file clicking through a dozen downloads.
Honest batch progress
A determinate progress bar tracks the split part by part across the whole batch, and a one-time note covers the first-run engine download. No spinner that leaves you guessing whether it stalled.
Preview before you save
Play any produced segment inline to confirm it starts and ends where you meant before you download it or the full ZIP. No blind exports.
100% in your browser
A self-hosted FFmpeg WebAssembly core does the cutting on your device. Your video is never uploaded, queued or stored, which makes it safe for personal, client and NDA footage alike.
Why use our video splitter
Beat per-file upload caps
When a platform won't take a file that big, split it into parts that each slip under the limit: without handing the original to a random server just to chop it up.
No watermark, no account, no cap
Free splitters love to stamp a logo on every part or gate the download behind a sign-up. This one just gives you the clips, clean, unbranded, and as many parts as you like.
One in, many out: in one pass
Cut a whole recording into equal chunks or a set of scenes in a single run, then take them individually or as one ZIP, instead of trimming the same file over and over.
Nothing to install
No desktop editor, no plugin, no FFmpeg command line to memorise. Open the page in any modern browser and you're splitting in seconds. It even works offline once the engine has loaded.

- Content creator
Chop a long video into shorts
Slice a 20-minute recording into a series of one-minute chunks to schedule as separate shorts or reels, without opening a heavyweight editor or uploading the whole session anywhere.
- Educator
Break a lecture into chapters
Split a single lecture capture into per-topic segments with custom ranges, so students can jump straight to the part they need instead of scrubbing one giant file.
- Anyone hitting a size cap
Split to fit an upload limit
Cut a file that's too large for a chat app, email or portal into equal parts that each clear the limit, with the original never touching a server.
- Editor
Extract multiple scenes at once
Pull several specific moments out of a master clip in one pass by listing their ranges, then download them together as a ZIP to drop straight into a project.

Common problems, solved
Hit a snag? Here are quick fixes for the issues people run into most.
The first split is taking a while before the progress bar moves.
The very first run downloads the FFmpeg WebAssembly engine (a one-time fetch that's then cached). You'll see a 'loading engine' note during that step. Subsequent splits skip it and start cutting immediately.
It slowed to a crawl or ran out of memory on a big file with many parts.
In-browser FFmpeg is single-threaded and re-encodes each segment in your tab's memory, so a large clip cut into many parts is demanding. Keep inputs loosely under a few hundred megabytes, use a larger chunk length (fewer parts), or split a rough range first.
My custom ranges were rejected.
Enter one range per line or comma-separated as start-end, using seconds or M:SS / H:MM:SS timecodes, e.g. 1:00-2:30. Each end must be after its start, and both must fall inside the video's duration, the tool flags the entry it couldn't read.
A part starts or ends a fraction off where I set it.
For accurate boundaries each segment is re-encoded around your exact times rather than snapping to the nearest keyframe. Fine-tune the range and re-run. The extra accuracy is why the parts land where you asked instead of on a keyframe.
Get the most out of it
Not sure how many parts you'll get? Set a chunk length and the tool shows the part count before you run, nudge the length to land on a tidy number.
Use custom ranges to pull out only the scenes you care about, in any order, list them start-end, one per line, using seconds or M:SS timecodes.
Fewer, longer parts split faster than many short ones: every segment is re-encoded, so a big chunk length is the quickest way through a long clip.
For the snappiest results keep inputs under a few hundred megabytes. The first run also downloads the engine once, so give split #1 a moment.
Grab everything at once with the ZIP button. The archive is built in your browser, so it never leaves your device either.
What's new
Recent updates and improvements to the video splitter.
Initial release, drag-and-drop input, equal-chunk and custom-range split modes, in-browser FFmpeg WebAssembly cutting, live batch progress, inline segment preview, per-part download and one-click ZIP of the whole set, all watermark-free.
Added a live part-count preview for chunk mode and friendlier timecode parsing for custom ranges (seconds, M:SS and H:MM:SS), with clearer flagging of the entry it couldn't read.
Improved probing for MOV/MKV sources and tightened large-batch guidance so heavy, many-part jobs warn before they start rather than mid-cut.

Common tasks
Your privacy is built in
Your video is read, probed, previewed and split entirely in your browser using a self-hosted FFmpeg WebAssembly core, and the ZIP is bundled locally too: nothing is ever uploaded to any server, queued, logged or stored. That makes the splitter safe for personal recordings, client footage and anything under NDA. There's no account and no watermark, and once the engine has loaded the tool keeps working offline. Close the tab and every trace is gone.
