Make any file fit — one preset, no codec menus.
You hit the cap — Gmail at 25 MB, the CMS at 50 MB, Discord, WhatsApp, your full Dropbox. You can see the file is too big. Drop it in, pick a preset, send it.
One preset • Your file stays on your device
Pick the compression tool you need
PDF, image, video, or audio — the four file types where size caps actually bite. All four run locally in your browser.
Your PDF is too heavy to send by email or upload to a form. Reduce its size without losing what matters.
Compress my PDFAn image is too heavy for the form, the email, or the web page. Compress it without a quality drop you'll notice.
Compress my imageYour video is over the email cap, the CMS limit, or the chat ceiling. Pick a preset, drop the resolution if you need to, and get it under the cap.
Compress my videoYour MP3, WAV or M4A is too big to attach. Pick a bitrate, see the projected size before you commit, and shrink the file in your browser.
Compress my audioWhy making a file smaller is harder than it should be
Compression is a single-knob idea trapped inside multi-knob tools. Here's what gets in the way.
Every platform has its own cap
Gmail at 25 MB. Discord free at 25 MB. WhatsApp at ~16 MB for video. Slack free at 1 GB total. The corporate CMS at "whatever IT decided in 2018."
There's no universal target size — there's only the next platform's cap, and a file that's too big for it.
The compress button is hidden inside Export As…
Most software treats compression as an afterthought — it's buried inside Save As, Export, or "Reduce File Size…", with the actual quality dial three submenus deep.
Apps that handle one file type can't help with the next, so a CV that's a PDF and a profile photo that's a JPG mean two different installs.
You can see the cap — and you still can't close the gap
It's the deadline panic of an upload failing at 99% the morning the deliverable is due. The embarrassment of "can you receive it on Drive instead?" when you wanted to attach it cleanly.
The file is 28 MB. The cap is 25. The answer is right there. The tool just won't let you give it.
Compression should be one decision, not a textbook
File size caps are a fact of life. The friction of meeting them shouldn't be.
What should be a single-knob choice — "how small does this need to be?" — should not require choosing a codec, learning a CRF scale, or installing a 200 MB encoder.
“We know what it feels like to write the email, attach the file, and watch Gmail reject it the second you hit Send. You shouldn't need a degree in video codecs to make a phone clip fit under 25 MB — you just need a tool that gets out of your way.”
Built for the four file types where size caps actually bite
Three steps. That's it.
No install, no account, no codec menus.
Drop in your file
Pick the matching compression tool — PDF, image, video, or audio.
Pick a preset
"Fits in an email", "small enough for chat", "as small as it can go" — labelled stops, not a textbook.
Download the smaller file
Same content, smaller footprint, ready to send.
Without the right compression tool…
An over-sized file doesn't just sit there — it derails the actual thing you were trying to do.
- Your email bounces back at 25 MB the morning of the deadline, while the recipient waits.
- Your 110 MB screen recording gets rejected by the company CMS, and a docs page sits unpublished while you fight with QuickTime.
- Your WhatsApp video fails to send three times in a row at the family birthday — and you give up and read the message aloud instead.
- Your Dropbox fills up the night before a reporting trip, forcing a $10/month upgrade you didn't budget for.
- You burn forty minutes in a desktop editor's export dialog, pick the wrong codec, and end up with a file that's smaller and visibly worse.
From too big to under the cap — in seconds
Before
- The file is too big. You can see the cap. You can't make the file shrink from where you are.
- You apologise, switch to a Drive share you didn't want, or bail on the upload entirely.
- A two-second decision derails the actual thing you were trying to do.
After
- Drop the file, pick a preset, download — under a minute, often under fifteen seconds for images and PDFs.
- The email sends on the first try. The CMS accepts the asset. The chat takes the video.
- You're back on the original task before you've finished your coffee.
