Patchd: Video FX Playground

Patchd turns your camera, photos, and video clips into experimental visual media. Explore a growing collection of real-time mini-apps for live camera FX, depth, segmentation, object detection, masks, trails, glitches, pixels, and generative graphics.

Live camera mini-apps

Transform camera input as it happens. Explore Blob Cam, Face Depth, Object Find, Pixx, ASCII Edge, Color Lift, DST Curl, Body Trail, Puzzle, Ink, Grid Delay, Pixelate, Motion Trail, Shadertation, and more.

Re-Patch any clip

Import or record a clip, choose an effect, preview the result, and render a new output. Use export presets for popular formats or keep the original frame size.

Photo Edit and Compose

Apply shader-style effects, masks, and overlays to still images. Build short visual sequences from multiple mini-apps with streamlined creative presets.

Made for fast exploration

Browse by category, search effects, watch preview videos, save favorites, and quickly return to recently used mini-apps.

Private media workflow

Camera frames, imported photos and videos, and rendered outputs are processed on your device by default. Patchd does not upload creative media unless an explicit, reviewed feature requires it.
