Everything you need to shrink a video
Quality presets for everyday sharing, or dial in an exact target file size
Private by design
The free web tool compresses entirely in your browser with WebAssembly. The desktop app runs 100% offline. Your videos never touch our servers.
Target an exact file size
Need to fit under a 25MB email limit or an 8MB Discord cap? Set the target size and Shrynk works out the right bitrate automatically.
Batch compression
The desktop app compresses whole folders of clips in one run — perfect for creators clearing out a camera roll or a screen-recording archive.
No file size limit
The web tool caps out at 100MB per file so it stays fast in the browser. The desktop app removes that ceiling completely — 4K, drone, and screen-recording footage included.
Keep the format you need
Export back to MP4 (H.264), strip the audio track entirely, or keep it — whatever the destination platform expects.
One app, both platforms
Same compression engine on Windows and macOS, so teams can standardize on one workflow regardless of who's on which machine.
Three steps, no learning curve
From dropped file to shareable link in under a minute for most clips
1
Drop your video
Drag and drop an MP4, MOV, or MKV file. Nothing uploads until compression is actually running — and for the web tool, it never leaves your device.
2
Pick a mode
Choose a quality preset for the best balance of size and clarity, or set an exact target size like "under 25MB".
3
Download and share
Get the compressed file back in seconds to minutes depending on length — ready for WhatsApp, email, Discord, or Instagram.
Built for the moments you actually compress video
Real use cases, not just a format converter
WhatsApp & Telegram
Get long clips under messaging app size limits without visible quality loss
Email attachments
Hit exact size targets like 10MB or 25MB set by your email provider
Discord uploads
Squeeze clips under the 8MB / 25MB / 50MB tier limits for your server
Instagram & Reels
Reduce upload time and preserve quality after the platform's own re-compression
4K & drone footage
Bring huge 4K exports down to a manageable size for sharing or archiving (desktop app)
Screen recordings
Shrink long tutorial or bug-report recordings before uploading or emailing them
Batch cleanup
Compress an entire folder of clips in one run on the desktop app to free up disk space
Website & landing pages
Cut hero video weight down so pages load faster without swapping to a low-res clip

Frequently Asked Questions
Need help? Contact us through soft-sell.com
Is the web compressor really free? What's the catch?
Yes, genuinely free with no account required, for single files up to 100MB. It runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — we don't see or store your video. There's no daily limit on how many files you compress.
Does my video ever get uploaded to a server?
No. The web tool processes files locally in your browser tab. The desktop app processes files locally on your computer using a bundled FFmpeg engine. In both cases, your video never leaves your device.
What happens if my file is over 100MB?
The web tool shows a prompt to use the $29 desktop app instead, which has no file size limit and also supports compressing many files at once (batch mode).
How do I activate the desktop app after buying?
You'll receive a license key by email after checkout. Open the app, go to License / Activation, paste the key, and activate. Your license covers 2 devices.
Will compression hurt my video's quality?
Quality presets are tuned to balance file size and visual quality for typical sharing use cases. If you need a specific size, the target-size mode calculates the bitrate needed to hit it while keeping quality as high as possible for that size.
Try it free, upgrade only if you need to
No account, no install, no upload — just drop a file and compress it.
