Boris FX is a Privately Owned company headquartered in the US. Founded in 1995 with approximately 100 employees, the company reported $10.0M in revenue as of 2024. It develops visual effects, planar tracking, titling, video editing, and workflow tools for broadcast, post-production, and film professionals.
Boris FX acquired Vegas Pro, Sound Forge, and Acid Pro from MAGIX Software GmbH on May 1, picking up a Windows NLE and two audio tools along with their AI technology. This acquisition, which saw Vegas Pro 2026 already shipping and occurred a month before NAB 2026, is viewed as part of a wider consolidation trend in post-production software ownership. Previously, on April 18, Boris FX made available Samplitude 2026, an update for music production and audio professionals. This release introduced a reimagined audio engine to deliver a more streamlined workflow and enhanced technical and creative flexibility, featuring smarter CPU management, an improved VST3 audio engine for low-latency recording, a video engine supporting 4K video playback, and the ability to remotely trigger Samplitude’s controls over a network.
