Wondershare UniConverter

Wondershare UniConverter is desktop software for processing video, audio and image files. Its tools cover format conversion, compression, editing, screen recording, media downloading, playback and disc burning.

UniConverter 17 adds AI-oriented functions, including video enhancement, watermark removal, subtitle generation, translation, speech-to-text, text-to-speech and video summarization. The product supports Windows and macOS, with selected online tools available through the Wondershare website.

UniConverter supports more than 1,000 video, audio and image formats. It includes batch conversion, device presets, hardware acceleration and controls for codecs, resolution, bitrate and frame rate.

The application provides video compression, trimming, cropping, merging, effects, subtitle editing, audio processing, GIF creation, screen recording and DVD or CD burning. It can also download media from supported online sites.

AI functions include video and image enhancement, background removal, watermark removal, vocal and noise removal, subtitle generation and translation, speech-to-text, text-to-speech, voice cloning and video summarization. Availability can vary by version, operating system and AI-credit balance.

Wondershare sells UniConverter through monthly, annual and perpetual licenses. Pricing can vary by operating system, product tier, promotion and whether AI features are included.

The official Windows individual store lists a $9.99 monthly plan, a $29.99 annual plan and a $39.99 perpetual plan for a basic offering. It also lists higher-priced plans with broader feature access, including a $29.99 monthly plan, a $49.99 annual plan and a $79.99 perpetual plan.

A 7-day free trial is available for UniConverter 17 and later. The trial restricts conversion and DVD output to one-third of the source length, limits downloads to one file at up to 480p, and limits recording. Perpetual licenses apply to the purchased version and don’t automatically include future major versions.
