Common Use Cases
Discord File Limit
Discord free tier limits uploads to 8 MB. Compress gameplay clips, memes, and screen recordings to share instantly.
Email Attachments
Most email providers cap attachments at 25 MB. Shrink meeting recordings and video presentations to fit.
Social Media Uploads
Reduce upload times and meet platform file size restrictions without re-encoding in desktop software.
Storage Savings
Reclaim disk space by batch-compressing old video files while maintaining watchable quality.
Privacy and Security
Your files stay private throughout the process:

- No watermarks — The output video contains no VisioArt branding or overlays.
- No tracking — We do not analyze, index, or retain any content from your videos.
