Maybe you own a $150 chromebook and can't run video editing software locally?

I could see this being useful for youtubers without access to decent hardware.

I think it depends on what you're editing. With internet speeds continuing to increase and be widely available, people getting increasingly used to recording themselves/creating their own content, and the influencer marketing wave educating/inspiring them that they too can create, the demand for video will only continue to go up.

I think people also underestimate the collaborative nature/ease of use that comes with creating video, editing it, commenting w/ colleagues, and sharing it seamlessly via a url or uploading to your intended social network. I don't think people will be making full-fledged movies anytime soon, but there's likely a lot of use cases beyond the hardcore power user that absolutely needs a native tool.

We render 4K video and all files are uploaded in the background.
