Upload an MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM or MKV video — we'll compress it and hand back a finished file that's easy to send or publish.
Pick one-click recommended compression, or enter the file size you want in megabytes — we'll work out the resolution and codec automatically.
MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, MKV · up to 200 MB · up to 5 files at once
A phone video can easily weigh hundreds of megabytes. Messengers and email either reject a file like that or squeeze it themselves, often badly. Here you shrink it in advance and decide how far to go.
“Recommended” scales the frame down to 720p when the original is larger, which is enough for messengers and social media. With “Custom size” you enter the file size you want in megabytes, and the resolution is chosen to match. The output is always MP4 with H.264.
Know the platform's upload limit? Type it in and the tool works out the resolution needed.
Add up to 5 videos and pick a mode for each one. A target larger than the file is flagged right away.
Resolution is never increased, since that would only bloat the file without adding detail.
Common formats from phones, cameras and screen recorders are accepted, up to 200 MB each.
The tool doesn't control bitrate directly. It estimates which resolution to request so the file lands near your target. Fast-moving scenes compress worse than static ones, so the result can differ a little. You see both the target and the actual size under the file.
Most of the saving comes from fewer pixels per frame. The aspect ratio is kept, so nothing gets stretched. On a phone screen 720p looks clean, but for professional editing keep working from the original.
Unlike the photo editors on this site, video isn't re-encoded in your browser. A browser can't handle that much work, so a processing service does it. The file goes there only for the job. compressphoto.org doesn't keep it, and the service deletes it afterwards.
The “Compress” button stays disabled and a note explains why. The target has to be smaller than the original.
Yes. Only the video track is changed; the audio stays as it was.
Always MP4 with H.264, which plays on virtually any phone, browser or player.
Re-encoding video is heavy work, and the upload adds time on top. A large clip can take a minute or more.
There is a daily limit. Registered users get a higher one than guests.
