Video Compressor, Every Setting: Quality, Target Size, Resolution and Format (Free)
Every setting of the free Video Compressor on an 11-second, 48 MB 1080p clip: Balanced lands at 4.3 MB (91% smaller), Small at 2.7 MB, 720p at about 2 MB and WebM at 2.7 MB; audio is about 0.1 MB of it; and aiming by size stays under the number you give it (8 MB lands just under, 3 MB → 2.5 MB). Then three jobs: a size limit, a web page (4.3 MB) and social media (about 7 MB). Free exports up to 1080p. Nothing is uploaded.

The Video Compressor, every setting, on an 11-second 1080p clip of 48 megabytes. At the default, Balanced, it comes out at 4.3 MB — 91% smaller. The estimate shown before you run is a guide, not a promise: here it said 5.2 MB. Small squeezes to 2.7 MB; High keeps more quality for footage you will edit again. Resolution matters most: the same Balanced setting at 720p is about 2 MB. WebM with the same settings is 2.7 MB and plays in every browser. Audio is about a tenth of a megabyte of this clip. When there is a hard limit, aim by size: 8 MB lands just under 8, 3 MB at 2.5 — always under the number you give. The Web page preset gives 4.3 MB; Social post keeps more quality (about 7 MB) for platforms that compress again. Free takes one video up to 100 MB and five minutes and exports up to 1080p. Everything runs in your browser; no video is uploaded.

47.8 MB · 11 seconds
The video compressor, every setting: quality, a target size, resolution, format, audio and the presets — and which one to use for what. Free, and nothing is uploaded.
The panel reads top to bottom: a preset, the format, how you want to aim — by quality, by size or by percent — then resolution and audio. The estimate updates as you go.
Balanced · 47.8 MB → 4.3 MB
The estimate said five point two. Treat it as a guide; the real number is on the result.
Small · 2.7 MB
720p · about 2 MB
WebM · 2.7 MB
Audio ≈ 0.1 MB
8 MB → under 8 · 3 MB → 2.5 MB
Email / Discord · Size 8 MB
Web page preset · 4.3 MB
Social post preset · about 7 MB
So: a size limit, aim by size. The web, WebM or the Web page preset. Smallest possible, lower the resolution first.
Free: 100 MB · 5 min · up to 1080p
None of it left the browser. This is its own record of everything it fetched while all of that ran — not one request carried the video.
