About CapCut
CapCut is a freemium video editor from ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok, and Google Search interest has held in the 80s for most of 2026 after a January 3 peak at 100 on a 261-week series that started at 8.
Wikipedia dates the China launch to May 2019 for iPhone and Android under the name JianYing. The English product shipped as ViaMaker, then rebranded to CapCut in 2020 and later added web plus desktop builds for Mac and Windows. TechCrunch on October 16 2023, citing data.ai, put CapCut at 490 million iOS and Android users as of August 2023, about 25% of TikTok's user base then, and called it ByteDance's second consumer app to pass $100 million in spending. Wikipedia, citing the South China Morning Post, says CapCut led global AI app downloads in July 2024 with about 38.42 million downloads and 323 million monthly active users, and lists more than 1 billion Google Play downloads by January 2025. Wikipedia also records a January 18 2025 United States outage with TikTok, then a restore on January 21 2025. People search capcut to download the editor, to chase templates, and to check whether the app is still live. The query will still be typed in November.
What the time series shows
The stored Google Search series for capcut runs 261 weeks from August 28 2021 at 8 to August 22 2026 at 89, a 1,820-day window that stays in single digits until a 42 print on April 16 2022, then never returns to that floor.
Same-week prints tell the adoption curve: 42 on August 26 2023, 51 on August 24 2024, 72 on August 23 2025, then 89 this week. The series peaks at 100 on January 3 2026, with 88 on December 27 2025 and 99 on March 28 2026. A July trough printed 81, 79, then 78 on July 25 2026, after which August 2026 ran 85, 85, 88, then 89. growth_label is regular because +14.1% over 30 days sits under +100% and +2.3% over 90 days is not a 500% surge. speed_label is constant because the latest 30-day absolute change of 11 points is not more than twice the prior 30-day change of 8 points, and the 30-day percent change is above 10%. seasonality_label is medium: the curve is a multi-year climb with a winter high, not a single spike and not a clean yearly mountain. volatility_label is low; last-52 week-over-week sample standard deviation is 5.23% (n=52, skip 0). The four labels are derived from this series. Google Search data is the source behind every percentage on this page.
