Why Compress Videos?

Smaller videos email faster, upload quicker, and pass attachment limits. A long clip can often drop to a fraction of its size.

Compressing in the browser keeps the process private and instant — no upload wait, no server-side quality guessing.

Frequently asked questions

How much can I compress a video?

It depends on the source. Video-heavy files compress well; already-tight files may barely shrink. You control the trade-off with a quality slider, target size, or bitrate.

Does compression reduce quality?

Compression always re-encodes to some degree, so there is a size/quality trade-off. Lower quality settings produce smaller files; high settings keep the video looking close to the original.

Is the original file modified?

No. You download a new compressed copy and the original stays exactly as it was.
