Compress Video for Discord
Discord's free plan limits uploads to 10 MB. This tool compresses your clip to fit, choosing the highest quality that still squeezes under the limit.
How to compress a video for Discord
- 1Click “Choose video” or drag your clip onto the page.
- 210 MB is already selected. Pick another size if your server allows more.
- 3Click “Compress to 10 MB” and download the result, then drop it into Discord.
Getting the best quality
The video's bitrate is set from its length so the file lands just under the limit. Shorter clips look much better: trim to the moment that matters before compressing.
Nitro limits
Nitro Basic and Nitro raise the limit to 50 MB and 500 MB. Choose 50 MB or type a custom size if you have them.
Frequently asked questions
- Is it free?
- Yes.
- Is my video uploaded?
- Not to us. It's compressed in your browser; you upload it to Discord yourself.
- What if it can't fit?
- Very long videos can't reach 10 MB at watchable quality. You'll see the closest size, and trimming will help.
