Compress Video for Email
Make a video smaller for email attachments and upload forms by adjusting browser-based video compression settings.
How to Use
- Choose a video file or drag it into the upload area.

- Start compression and wait for the browser video engine to finish.
- Preview or inspect the result, compare the file size, and download it.
Best Use Cases
- Short clips that are too large for an email attachment.
- Project handoffs where a smaller preview is more useful than the master file.
- Upload forms with a documented file-size or resolution limit.
Output Format
The output format depends on the selected format and the browser encoder available to the tool. MP4 is generally the practical choice for compatibility; always check the destination requirements.
Privacy

FAQ
What video settings reduce email size most?
Lowering resolution and video bitrate usually has the biggest effect. Use a short test export first so you can balance file size and readable detail.
Will compression remove the original video?
No. Downloaded output is created as a separate file. Keep the original master file for future edits or higher-quality sharing.
Is the output guaranteed to fit an email limit?
No. Email limits vary by provider and account. Compare the actual output size with the recipient limit before attaching it.
