Final Cut Pro
Apple's pro video editor with the Magnetic Timeline, AI captions and masking, and color grading
Final Cut Pro is Apple's video editing app for Mac, made for everyone from first-time editors to professionals. Editing, audio, titles and effects, color grading, and delivery all happen in one app.
Key features:
- Edit on the Magnetic Timeline, which keeps clips in sync as you move and trim them.
- Isolate people and objects from the background without a green screen using Magnetic Mask.
- Generate captions automatically by analyzing spoken audio.
- Find shots with Visual Search and spoken phrases with Transcript Search.
- Snap clips to the music with Beat Detection, and reframe projects for square or vertical delivery with Smart Conform.
- Grade color with wheels, curves, and LUTs, and tone-map clips between HDR and SDR.
- Clean up dialogue with Voice Isolation and audio plug-ins from Logic Pro.
Final Cut Pro requires macOS 26.6 or later and 8 GB of memory, and some features need a Mac with Apple silicon. It's a $299.99 one-time purchase on the Mac App Store, or included in the Apple Creator Studio subscription for $12.99 a month or $129 a year after a 30-day free trial. There's also an iPad version.
