The fastest path to a smaller file

Most file-size reduction comes from three levers: shorter duration, lower resolution, and lower bitrate. This browser tool focuses on resolution and bitrate.

What happens to your file? It stays in this browser tab while the tool creates the output.

Best settings and limits

Best first try

Use 720p for a balanced result. Use 480p when size matters more than sharpness.

When this may fail

If a video is many minutes long, compression alone may not be enough. Shortening the clip can make a bigger difference.

Privacy boundary

The selected video file stays on your device while the tool creates the output.

Some quality tradeoff is normal. Higher compression means smaller files but more visible loss.
