Common questions
Why 50 MB?+
50 MB is a common upload limit on messaging apps, learning platforms and some forums. It keeps quality high while getting a longer clip under the cap.
Will it still look good?+
50 MB is a comfortable budget for short and medium clips, so quality usually stays high. We tune the bitrate to the video's length to make the most of it.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?+
It's uploaded over an encrypted connection, compressed on our server, and both the upload and the result are deleted after 1 hour. No account, no watermark.
What if it can't fit 50 MB?+
We give you the smallest watchable version and tell you it's just over, for a long video, trim it first or pick a smaller resolution.
Which formats work?+
MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI and most common video files. MP4 comes back as MP4.
