Compress Video Online: 100% Private & No Upload
Tired of waiting for huge video files to upload just to shrink them? Or worried about your private videos being stored on a random cloud server? Our Compress Video tool brings the power of industry-standard professional software directly to your browser.
Using FFmpeg.wasm (WebAssembly), we process your video client-side. This means your video stays on your computer, providing 100% privacy and security while you reduce video file size for free.
Why Use a Browser-Based Video Compressor?
Most online video compressors (like Clideo or Kapwing) upload your data to their backend. This is risky for sensitive content and slow if your internet is weak. Our tool offers a revolutionary alternative:
- Absolute Privacy: Your video never leaves your device. No server-side processing, no data logging, and no leaks.
- No Watermarks: Unlike other “free” tools, we don’t ruin your video with ugly logos. You get clean, professional results.
- Professional Quality (FFmpeg): We use FFmpeg, the same engine used by professional video editors, compiled to run in your browser.
- No Upload Limits: Since there is no upload, you can process large video files that other sites would reject or charge you to handle.
High-Performance Compression Features
1. Advanced Codec Support
Our WASM video compressor supports the most popular formats and containers:
- MP4: The universal standard for web and mobile.
- MOV: Perfect for iPhone and Mac users.
- WebM & MKV: Ideal for high-quality web streaming and archives.
2. Optimize for Social Media & Email
Easily shrink videos for Discord, Slack, or Email attachments. By adjusting the target bitrate or quality, you can ensure your video fits under the 25MB or 50MB limits common on these platforms.
3. Transparent Processing
Since the compression runs on your hardware, the speed is determined by your CPU. You have full control over the process, and you can see the progress in real-time without worrying about “Server busy” errors.
Common Use Cases: Who is this for?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is it safe to compress my private videos here?
Yes! This is the safest video compressor online. Because it uses client-side WebAssembly, your video data stays in your browser’s temporary memory. No one can see or access your file except you.
Why is it slower than some other sites?
Cloud-based sites use massive server farms to process videos. Our tool uses your device’s CPU. While it might take a bit longer for large files, you save time by skipping the upload and download stages, and you gain 100% privacy.
Will I lose video quality?
Compression always involves some trade-offs, but our tool uses FFmpeg’s smart encoding to preserve as much detail as possible while significantly reducing the bitrate.
Can I compress 4K videos?
Yes, as long as your computer has enough RAM and processing power. For 4K or very long videos, we recommend using a desktop browser (Chrome or Edge) for the best performance.
