Is EchoWave really free?
Yes. The free plan gives you the full editor and unlimited videos, exported at up to 720p with a small EchoWave badge. Most of the free tools and converters export completely clean files. Paid plans unlock 1080p up to 8K, higher frame rates, exports without the badge and premium quality settings.
Do I need to install anything or create an account?
No. EchoWave runs in your browser, so you can open the editor and start cutting straight away. There is nothing to download and you can begin without an account. If you prefer a native app, EchoWave for Mac and Windows is on the download page.
How do automatic subtitles work?
Upload your video and EchoWave transcribes the speech for you. You edit the words like a document, pick one of 176 caption styles with karaoke word highlighting, and translate the result into any of 86 languages. Export captions baked into the video or as SRT and VTT files.
Can I export in 4K?
Yes. Paid plans export at 1080p, 1440p, 4K and even 8K, at frame rates from 23.976 up to 120 fps, with ready made presets for YouTube, TikTok and Reels. Free exports are 480p or 720p at 30 fps.
Will my video have a watermark?
Free tools and converters export clean files with no watermark. Videos rendered from the free editor plan carry a small EchoWave badge, and any paid plan removes it.
Does EchoWave work on my device?
EchoWave works in any modern browser, including Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge, on Mac, Windows, Linux and Chromebooks. The editor works on phones and tablets too, and native desktop apps are available for Mac and Windows.
Where do my videos render?
On EchoWave cloud render servers, not on your machine. Submit an export, keep working or close the tab, and your file is ready to download when the render finishes. Your fans hear the video, not your laptop fan.
Can I automate video creation?
Yes. Save any project as a template with text, image, video and audio placeholders, batch render hundreds of variations from a CSV, or generate videos programmatically with the REST API and MCP server. The API docs cover everything you need to get started.
