A Video Editor for Lawyers That Never Uploads Your Evidence
Depositions, body-cam clips, surveillance footage and client interviews are privileged — they shouldn't sit on a third-party server. Plumely edits, trims and captions video entirely in your browser, so nothing is ever uploaded.
Everything runs on your device. Your videos are never uploaded — there's no server to upload to.
Best in Chrome & Edge on desktop.
Privileged footage stays on your device
Most online editors upload your video to process it, putting privileged material on someone else's infrastructure. Plumely uses your browser's own engine — there's no upload endpoint, so deposition and evidence video never leaves your machine and never touches a vendor's servers.
No third-party processor on your compliance surface
Because nothing is uploaded, there's no cloud sub-processor to vet, no data-processing agreement to negotiate, and no retention policy to audit. The file lives only where you opened it.
Built for the work you actually do
- ✓Trim and split long depositions to the relevant testimony
- ✓Word-level captions for the record and for exhibits
- ✓Loudness leveling so quiet witnesses are audible
- ✓Reframe wide-room footage to focus on the speaker
Clean exhibits, no watermark
Export a clean 1080p MP4 with no branding stamped over your evidence — appropriate for filings, mediation decks and the courtroom.
Works offline
Install it as an app and the engine is cached. You can review and cut sensitive footage on an air-gapped or offline machine with no connection at all.
FAQ
Is my client's footage uploaded anywhere?+
No. There is no upload endpoint — editing and export happen in your browser on your device. You can confirm with your browser's network tab: 0 bytes uploaded.
Can I use this for privileged or confidential material?+
Yes. Because files never leave your device, Plumely adds no third-party processor to your matter. (We don't provide a BAA or compliance certification — none is needed when there's no data transfer, but confirm against your own firm's policy.)
Will there be a watermark on my exhibit?+
No. Exports are clean MP4 with no Plumely branding.
Do I need an account?+
No sign-up is required to edit or export.
