Compress video
without the bloat.

Shrink MP4, MOV, AVI and WEBM files with an adjustable quality slider. Smaller uploads for email, the web and messaging — your video stays in the same format, just lighter.

Available on Pro (€9.99/mo), Business (€49.99/mo), and Enterprise. EU-hosted, files deleted after 1 hour.

How the slider works: a higher quality setting keeps the video looking closer to the original but saves less space; a lower setting squeezes harder. We re-encode with H.264 (or VP9 for WEBM) — modern, widely-supported codecs — so the result plays everywhere. Compression is lossy by design: you're trading a little visible detail for a much smaller file.
MP4, MOV, AVI & WEBM
Drop in the four most common video formats. The output keeps the same format — an MP4 stays an MP4 — so nothing downstream needs to change.
Quality you control
One slider sets the trade-off between file size and visual fidelity. Tune it for an email attachment, a web upload, or archival storage.
Private & secure
Videos are uploaded over HTTPS, processed in the EU, never shared, never used for AI training, and permanently deleted within 1 hour.

How it works

1
Upload your video
Sign in to your Pro / Business / Enterprise account, open the "Compress video" tool, and drag your MP4, MOV, AVI or WEBM in.
2
Pick a quality level
Move the slider. Lower = smaller file, higher = closer to the original. We re-encode with H.264, or VP9 for WEBM.
3
Download the smaller file
Same format, smaller size, ready to share. Audio is preserved (AAC, or Opus for WEBM) and the file is optimised for fast streaming.

Common questions

Does the output stay in the same format?

Yes. Compressing an MP4 gives you an MP4, a MOV gives you a MOV, and so on. If you need to change format instead — say MOV → MP4 or MP4 → WEBM — use the matching converter on the Tools tab.

Which codecs do you use?

H.264 (x264) for MP4, MOV and AVI — the most widely-supported video codec, plays on virtually every device and browser. WEBM is re-encoded with VP9. Audio is kept as AAC (or Opus for WEBM) at a sensible bitrate.

How much smaller will my file get?

It depends on the source. Phone footage and screen recordings often shrink dramatically because they're encoded inefficiently; already-optimised web video saves less. The quality slider lets you push as hard as your use case allows — preview the result before you rely on it.

Will compression reduce the resolution?

No — we keep the original resolution and frame rate. The size saving comes from smarter encoding and the quality setting you choose, not from shrinking the picture.

Is there a file size limit?

Pro users get 500 MB per file. Business users get 5 GB. Large videos take longer to process — a long clip can take a couple of minutes.

Can I compress video through the API?

Yes. Send the file to /api/v1/convert with op=compress-video and a quality value. See the API docs for the full request format.
