Compress Video for Email Attachments
Email providers usually limit attachment size to around 20–25MB. Large videos often exceed that limit. Compressing the video reduces its file size so it can be attached and sent normally.

Sending video files through email can be difficult because attachment limits are relatively small. Even short recordings from a phone can easily exceed the allowed size.
A video compressor reduces the file size by re-encoding the video with lower bitrate or resolution. This makes the file smaller and easier to send as an attachment.
Compression always involves some quality loss.
Common uses include:
• sending recorded presentations
• sharing short clips with colleagues
• attaching videos to support emails
• sending small video files without using cloud storage
Upload your video, compress it, and download the smaller file ready to attach to your email.
