Compress Video for Discord
Discord limits file uploads to 10MB for free users. If your video is too large to send, you can compress it first and reduce the file size. Upload your video and the tool will re-encode it to fit under the limit.

Discord has one of the strictest upload limits among messaging platforms. If a video is just slightly too large, it cannot be uploaded unless you compress it or pay for Nitro.
This tool reduces the size of your video by re-encoding it with efficient compression settings. The result is a smaller file that can usually be uploaded to Discord without issues.
Because the file size is reduced, some loss of quality is normal. The goal is not perfect quality preservation but reaching the file size needed to share the video.
Typical situations where compression helps:
• sending gameplay clips
• sharing screen recordings
• uploading short videos in chat
• posting clips in Discord servers
Upload your video, let the compressor process it, and download the smaller version ready to upload.
