Compress a video to send by email

Free, in your browser, nothing uploaded. Drop the file, press the button.

Gmail, Outlook and most corporate mail servers cap attachments around 25 MB — and the video that won't send is usually ten times that. The Email preset targets a size that clears standard attachment limits, and the compression runs entirely on your computer.

No upload queue

Compression runs on your own CPU. A 500 MB recording never crawls up your connection to someone's server — there's nothing to upload, wait on, or trust.

No command line to learn

The same H.264 encoding professionals tune by hand — with the bitrate math and resolution worked out for you. Pick a size, press the button.

Private by default

Your video is processed in browser memory and discarded when you close the tab. We never see a frame of it — only anonymous size and preset stats.

Questions people actually ask

Why did my 25 MB video still bounce?

Email encodes attachments in base64, which inflates them by roughly a third — a 25 MB file travels as about 33 MB. If a send fails, compress again with the Text message preset (16 MB) for extra headroom.

Is this safer than an online compressor that uploads my file?

Your video never leaves your machine here, which matters for anything sensitive — screen recordings in particular tend to contain more than people intend to share.
