When you choose the Sapphire plug-in suite from Boris FX you are investing in a comprehensive toolkit built for creativity, precision and cinematic impact. This collection gives editors, motion graphics artists and VFX professionals access to more than 270 high-end effects and over 3,000 ready-to-use presets that immediately elevate broadcast-quality work. With the integrated Builder environment, you can combine and customise these effects and transitions to craft distinct visual signatures.
Sapphire also delivers native tracking and masking thanks to the Academy Award-winning Mocha engine, so you stay in control of motion, shape and isolation directly inside your host application. What this means is fewer workarounds, faster renders and more time to focus on artistic decisions rather than technical hurdles.
Beyond the numbers, Sapphire stands out with GPU-accelerated performance and high image quality. Whether you're working in Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer or any OFX host such as DaVinci Resolve, Blackmagic Fusion, The Foundry Nuke or Autodesk Flame, you'll see smoother previews, faster deliverables and confident rendering of complex looks.
For creative teams focused on impact, this suite offers more than just tools - it offers workflow acceleration. From glowing lens flares, dreamy lighting effects and natural film-style textures to stylised cartoons, distortions and transitions, Sapphire covers a wide aesthetic range. Because the effect library is deep and mature, you'll often find the look you want or a close starting point, and then customise further with precision controls.
The latest version, Sapphire 2026, introduces several meaningful enhancements: new effects such as FilmBurn, FilmBurnTransition and MochaWhip; Builder improvements including parameter-linking in the node graph; Mocha engine enhancements; fresh lens-flare presets and expanded support for AMD hardware. With these developments, Sapphire 2026 continues to push creative boundaries, streamline workflows and deliver the polish and flexibility demanded in today's post-production environments.
