Compress Video for Discord
Hit the 10MB limit without leaving your browser - free, private, and watermark-free.
Discord caps uploads at 10MB for free accounts, and phone clips blow past that in seconds of footage. This tool computes the exact bitrate that lands your clip just under the cap, re-encodes it to a share-ready MP4, and never uploads anything to a server in the process. No Nitro, no watermark, no external hosting links.

Frequently asked questions
Why does Discord reject my video at exactly 10MB?
The 10MB limit is strict and includes container overhead. This tool targets a few percent under the cap specifically so the finished file uploads cleanly instead of failing at 10.1MB.
How much quality will I lose compressing to 10MB?
It depends entirely on length. A 30-second clip at 10MB looks great; three minutes means a visibly lower bitrate. For long videos, trim to the highlight first - a shorter clip at the same size cap always looks better.
Does this work for Nitro's larger limits too?
Yes - if you have Nitro's 50MB or 500MB caps, pick a larger target or use the standard Compress Video tool and stop compressing so aggressively.
