Target a small MP4 for Discord sharing. The tool estimates a local bitrate from your clip length and processes the file in your browser.

Best for short clips. Exact size depends on source length and motion.

Why Discord compression is different
A 20-second clip and a 3-minute clip need very different bitrates to land near 8MB. This page estimates a target bitrate from duration, then creates an MP4 that is easier to share.
An exact 8MB result cannot be guaranteed for every source. High-motion clips and long videos may need another pass or a shorter trim.
Before you start
What happens to your file?
The selected video is processed in this browser tab. It is not uploaded to a conversion server.
Best first try
Use the default settings first, then adjust resolution, quality, or clip length if the result is too large.
When this may fail
Very large files or mobile browser memory limits can stop processing.
Frequently asked questions
Will it always be under 8MB?
No local one-pass estimate can guarantee that for every video, but it is tuned for small Discord-friendly files.
Does Discord need MP4?
MP4 is the safest sharing format across Discord clients and mobile devices.
What if the video is long?
Trim it first or accept lower quality. Long videos need very low bitrate to fit under 8MB.
