Is MediaKit right for you?
You'll love MediaKit if…
- You're a Mac user who converts video, audio, images, PDFs, or archives regularly
- You refuse to upload files to cloud conversion tools (CloudConvert, Zamzar) for privacy reasons
- You want one native Mac app instead of five single-purpose utilities
- You care about offline-first, sandboxed file processing on Apple Silicon
- You automate via Shortcuts and want conversion actions you can chain
MediaKit may not be for you if…
- You're on Windows or Linux
- You convert one file a year and a free web tool is fine
- You need professional video editing (use Final Cut or Resolve instead)
