How to compress a video to 20 MB

Choose a video and keep the 20 MB target, or enter another limit. The compressor picks a bitrate and resolution that fit, encodes the video in your browser, and measures the finished file before offering the download.

  1. Step 1

    Choose a video
    Pick the file that needs to fit under 20 MB.
  2. Step 2

    Set the limit
    Keep 20 MB or enter another target size.
  3. Step 3

    Download the result
    Save the video after its final size is verified.

What to expect

Supported inputs
MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, MPEG-TS (.ts, .mts), and 3GP videos. AVI, WMV, and FLV files can’t be opened yet.
What happens
The default limit is 20 MB. Bitrate is estimated from the limit and source size, and the resolution steps down when the budget is too tight for a sharp picture. The output is checked against the limit and the original file size. A smaller input is never intentionally expanded to fill the limit.
Limits
A bitrate estimate is not a size guarantee. Very short size budgets, unsupported codecs, or device memory limits can prevent a valid export.

Your files stay on your device

Your computer does the work, so the file never has to be uploaded, and that’s also why it’s free: there’s no server time for us to pay for. You don’t need an account, and nothing you make gets a watermark.

Questions

About 30 seconds at 1080p, or about a minute at 720p. Longer videos are scaled down automatically; for the best picture, trim the clip first.

Discord’s free upload limit is 20 MB, and Outlook.com and iCloud Mail cap messages at 20 MB.

The export stops instead of handing you an oversized file. Trim the video, raise the limit, or try a different file.
