Compress Video Online

Reduce video file size and choose MP4, WebM or MOV output.

Compression can run in the browser or on a configured processing server, depending on the device and file.

This eight-second clip has text over a photograph. Compare the motion and legibility. Choose MP4, select a custom size and enter 1 MB. The sample kept its 720p resolution. Final size depends on the source and settings.

How to use

  1. Choose a video.
  2. Choose MP4, WebM or MOV and select 10, 25, 50, 100 MB or a custom target.
  3. Process and download the compressed result.

What this tool does

Compress common video files to a practical target size and choose the output container. MP4 is selected by default, with WebM and MOV available when needed.

Worked example

A 60-second, 30 MB video needs to fit within 10 MB. Its approximate total bitrate budget is 10 × 8 ÷ 60 = 1.33 Mbit/s, before MB/MiB differences and container overhead. Leave room for audio. A five-minute clip at the same target has a much smaller bitrate budget.

Limits that affect the result

Target size is an estimate rather than an exact byte guarantee. Compression cannot restore missing detail; repeated lossy exports accumulate damage.
