CapCut

Opens directly

Generation is not the whole job. Subtitles, editing, and the finished cut are wrapped up in CapCut.

How to finish this job in mainland China

Where to open it. CapCut’s official site in China, capcut.cn, opened. The international site is a different address. https://www.capcut.cn/

What it is good for. Generation is not the whole job. Subtitles, editing, and the finished cut are wrapped up in CapCut.

What it is not. Not the text-to-video first pick. Finish subtitles, pacing, and export here. Use the China site, not the international CapCut site.

Note

CapCut’s site in China is capcut.cn. Do not mix it up with the overseas CapCut international site. Its job is to finish the cut: subtitles, pacing, and export. Text-to-video still starts with Kling. Image and video generation can also start in Jimeng, then come back to CapCut. If you download only the international version, access conditions may differ. This list’s link is the official site in China.

  • MoyinFinish Chinese narration and audiobooks. It is not a video generation model.
  • RunwayA long-standing overseas tool for video generation and editing. For a finished clip, use Kling first.
