Free Video Compressor

Make big videos small without making them look bad. The Picsart video compressor reduces your MP4, MOV, or AVI file size by up to 90% while preserving sharpness — so clips upload faster, fit email limits, and stop eating storage. No watermark, no software.

Up to 90% smaller

Cut video file size dramatically so clips upload, send, and stream without the wait. Big footage, small files.

Quality you can't see being compressed

Smart compression trims the data you don't notice and protects the detail you do. Your video stays crisp at a fraction of the size.

Hit an exact target size

Need it under 25 MB for email or 8 MB for Discord? Set a target file size or quality level and Picsart compresses to fit.

Reduce video size without losing quality

A huge file usually means wasted data, not better video. The Picsart video compressor analyzes your clip and removes the redundant information your eyes never register — keeping the detail, color, and motion that matter. The result is a video that looks the same to a viewer but takes up far less space. That's the difference between simply shrinking a file and compressing it intelligently.


Compress MP4 files — plus MOV, MKV, and AVI

MP4 is the format most people are trying to shrink, so the Picsart MP4 compressor is tuned to get the most savings out of it. But it doesn't stop there: drop in a MOV from your phone, an MKV download, or an AVI archive and the tool compresses each one just as cleanly. One compressor handles your whole library.


Hit the size limit for email, web, and social

Every platform has its own ceiling — Gmail caps attachments at 25 MB, Discord at 8 MB for free users, and a slow site loads faster with lighter video. Instead of guessing, set the size you need and let Picsart compress to it. Your video arrives small enough to go through on the first try.


Compress, then finish your video in Picsart

Compression is often the last step before sharing — so why switch tools to do it? Inside Picsart you can trim a clip, add subtitles, drop in music, then compress the final cut with the Video Editor. Your footage goes from edit to export-ready without ever leaving the tab.
