0/72 VirusTotal Clean
Every release binary is automated through VirusTotal scanning against 72 antivirus engines with zero malware, trojans, or adware flags.
100% Public GPLv3 Code
Every single line of Rust, C++, and shader code is inspectable on GitHub. No proprietary blobs, no hidden binary obfuscation.
Zero Network Telemetry
FilmCraft never pings external analytics servers, tracks usage habits, or requires user accounts. It runs 100% offline.
Zero Bundled Software
No browser extensions, toolbars, search engine hijackers, or crypto-miners. Just a pure video editing binary.
Why Do macOS Gatekeeper or Windows SmartScreen Show Warnings?
Both Microsoft and Apple require software developers to purchase commercial Extended Validation (EV) code-signing certificates costing $400–$700 per year, plus annual corporate registration fees.
As a free, volunteer-driven open-source project, FilmCraft signs binaries using self-attested cryptographic GPG keys. Because new release filenames are fresh, Microsoft SmartScreen and Apple Gatekeeper flag them as "Unrecognized Application" simply because not enough users have downloaded that specific version hash yet.
This is a reputation check, not a malware detection. You can safely bypass it following our installation instructions.
