Get your video under a sensible page weight without it falling apart. Free, in your browser.
Drag and drop a file, or click to browse. Files up to 500 MB.
The compression level and resolution are pre-set for Web. Adjust either in the panel if you want a different trade.

On a web page, video weight is page-load time. A hero video that takes six seconds to start is a hero video nobody sees, and it drags your Core Web Vitals down with it.
Aim for the smallest file that still looks right at the size it will be displayed. A background loop shown at 600 pixels wide does not need a 1080p master, and a autoplaying header clip should be measured in single-digit megabytes.
If the video is for a page rather than a person, consider converting to WebM as well: VP9 usually delivers the same picture in less data than H.264.
| Use | Practical limit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Hero / background loop | Under 5 MB | Trim short and compress hard |
| Embedded demo | 10 to 30 MB | Or host it and embed a player |
| Recommended resolution | 1080p or below | Match the display size |
| Alternative format | WebM | Smaller at the same quality in modern browsers |
Under about 5 MB for anything that autoplays in a hero. Longer embedded videos are better served from a player than as a raw file on the page.
MP4 for maximum compatibility, WebM when you want the smallest file and your audience is on modern browsers. You can produce both here.
At the preset level here, most viewers will not see a difference. Quality only falls apart when you compress hard AND keep a high resolution, which is why this page pairs a level with a resolution.
