Vision Effects has released a new standalone version of Twixtor, its tool designed for adjusting video speeds, especially useful in motion graphics and visual effects projects. This new edition, called Standalone, retains the essential features of previous plugin versions, including its advanced algorithm based on machine learning. However, it is now offered at a much more affordable price.
Main Features of Twixtor
Twixtor is recognized for its ability to:
- Slow down videos to create slow-motion effects.
- Speed up video playback.
- Modify the frame rate to suit different needs.
This is achieved through advanced warping and frame interpolation techniques, transforming standard videos into visually stunning content. Additionally, Twixtor features GPU acceleration, is compatible with a wide range of hardware, and integrates with multiple video editing and compositing tools.

The Standalone edition eliminates the need for a host program, making it a simpler and more accessible solution for users. It is specifically designed for a broad audience, including:
- Family event videos, such as first steps or weddings.
- Cooking demonstrations or crafts.
- Real estate presentations.
- Artistic performances, such as dance.
- Sports achievement videos.

- No limits on video resolution or duration.
- Use of the advanced algorithm introduced in Twixtor 8.
- Free availability for users with a Twixtor 8 Pro license.
Existing Twixtor 8 Pro users will be granted this edition at no additional cost.
