KARUIYA PHILOSOPHY
Built by choosing what matters.
Karuiya does not compete on feature count. It prioritizes responsive, dependable editing for everyday work.
The editing essentials
Cuts, layers, text, keyframes, audio levels, and color adjustments are handled on one timeline.
Your media stays local
Media and project files are not uploaded to an external service for editing.
A workflow made to last
Autosave, recovery, relinking, and undo/redo are treated as core features.
WORKFLOW
Three steps. No detour.
Import media
Place video, images, and audio on the timeline.
Cut and refine
Trim, arrange, add text, and adjust sound and color.
Export
Choose an output profile and create the finished video.
LOCAL FIRST
Local-first. Your footage stays on your PC.
Karuiya does not require an account or cloud upload. Except for optional update checks, media and project data are not sent outside your computer.
TARGET HARDWARE
Ordinary laptops still matter.
A Windows laptop with a Core i5 U-series processor, 16 GB RAM, and integrated graphics is one of Karuiya's important validation targets.
