==History==
Clipchamp Pty Ltd was founded as a startup company by Alexander Dreiling, Dave Hewitt, Tobias Raub and Soeren Balko, in 2013. 
In an interview, Dreiling commented that at first, the company was "trying to build an enormous, distributed supercomputer". Among the first software developed by the company's team was a tool for video compression and conversion.https://www.smartcompany.com.au/startupsmart/news/clipchamp-steve-baxter-investment/ 
In 2014, the first version of the free, audiovisual browser-based software on the Clipchamp platform was released. When the supercomputer project ground to a halt, the team decided to keep going with the video programming technology, according to Dreiling, "a tool that worked on Chromebooks".https://dotcommagazine.com/2023/09/clipchamp-a-must-read-comprehensive-guide-2/
