About Compress Video to 10 MB
Discord’s free upload limit is 10 MB and many job portals, school LMS platforms and contact forms cap uploads at 10 MB. This page opens the video compressor with a 10 MB target already set: upload the clip, tap Compress, and download an MP4 that is genuinely under 10 MB. The tool reads the video’s length, works out the bitrate that fits, picks the resolution that bitrate can carry (1080p, 720p, 480p or 360p) and runs two-pass encoding with a corrective pass if needed — so you don’t guess at quality sliders and re-try.
It works from a phone browser with no app, accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and camera recordings up to 300 MB / 20 minutes, and deletes your file from the server as soon as the download is delivered. If the result must be smaller still, cap the resolution or remove audio (about 0.7 MB per minute) and run it again.
How to compress a video to a specific size online
- 1Tap the upload area and choose your video — MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV or a recording straight from your phone, up to 300 MB and 20 minutes.
- 2Pick a target: 25 MB for Messenger or Gmail, 16 MB for WhatsApp status, 8 MB for Discord — or type any number of MB. The tool shows the resolution that budget will allow.
- 3Optional: cap the resolution (e.g. max 720p) or tick Remove audio if the clip doesn’t need sound — that alone saves about 0.7 MB per minute.
- 4Click Compress to under 25 MB. Two-pass encoding usually takes about as long as the video is; keep the tab open.
- 5Check the before/after sizes and the preview, then Download MP4 and send it.
Frequently asked questions
How do I compress a video to under 10 MB?
Upload it here — the 10 MB target is pre-selected — and click Compress. The encoder calculates the bitrate for your clip’s length, chooses a resolution that fits, and delivers an MP4 under 10 MB. The on-screen estimate shows the resolution before you wait.
What quality will a 10 MB video have?
It depends on length: 10 MB over one minute is roughly 1 kbps — comfortably 720p or better; the same budget over ten minutes is about 0 kbps, which means 360p–480p. Trim the clip first if you need both small and sharp.
Is the video uploaded anywhere or kept?
It is processed on our server (ffmpeg) and deleted as soon as the result reaches your browser. Nothing is stored or shared; there is no sign-up.
