About this tool

Shrink large video files for email, messaging or web upload - without sending them to a stranger's server. Compression runs in your browser via FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, the same engine professional video tools use.

Features

  • MP4, WebM, MOV input and output
  • Quality presets (high / balanced / small)
  • Optional resolution downscaling
  • Audio kept in sync

How to use it

  1. Drop a video.
  2. Pick a quality preset.
  3. Wait while FFmpeg processes locally, then download.
🔒 100% private

Everything happens inside your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your files are never uploaded to a server, never stored, and never seen by us.

Frequently asked questions

Why is it slower than online tools?

Online tools use beefy GPU servers. Your browser uses your CPU - slower for big files, but completely private.

Will quality drop a lot?

The "balanced" preset gives ~50-70% smaller files with very little visible quality difference.
