Export a video
Export your finished video as an MP4 with narration and music, at your plan's resolution, and fix the messages that can stop an export.
Export
- Open the video in the Studio. It must be ready (the Review step).
- Click Export in the top bar.
- On the Free plan, choose Export with watermark or Upgrade.
- Choose where to save the file and click Save.
The button shows the progress. Click it again to cancel. When it's done, the file is shown in File Explorer.
What you get
| Format | MP4 (H.264), standard colour (BT.709) |
| Size | 1920×1080 (16:9), 1080×1920 (9:16) or 1080×1080 (1:1); lower if your plan's resolution is lower (Free: 720p) |
| Sound | The narration and the music, at the volume you set |
| Mark | A small "Made with Kinisma" mark on plans that include it |
If an export can't start
| Message | Fix |
|---|---|
| …Upgrade your plan for more videos this month. | This month's videos are used. Upgrade, or wait for next month. |
| This video is X long; your plan allows up to Y. | Ask the agent "make it under 60 seconds", or upgrade. |
| …Top up your credits on the website. | Buy credits: Plans and credits. |

Good to know
- One export per project at a time. You can keep working while it runs.
- Kinisma checks each export with your account before it starts, and any credits it reserved come back if you cancel.
- Your exports count is in Settings → Export.

Questions
What resolution are exports?
The project's size, 1080p (for example 1920×1080 for 16:9), or lower if your plan's resolution is lower. Free plan exports are 720p.
How do I remove the watermark?
Exports carry a small 'Made with Kinisma' mark on the Free plan. Upgrade to pay as you go or the Lifetime license to export without it.
Does exporting count against my plan?
Yes, each export counts as one of your plan's videos for the month. A cancelled or failed export doesn't count.
