How it works
Drop your video in. WavyVid reads its length, resolution, and bitrate right in your browser — nothing uploads anywhere.
It works out the exact bitrate (and resolution, if needed) that lands as close to your target size as possible without wrecking quality.
Download the compressed file, or share it straight from the result screen. Original stays on your device the whole time.
10MB is Discord's default attachment limit on non-boosted servers, which makes this the most common target size people need. It's also a reasonable ceiling for quick clips shared over messaging apps that don't compress media themselves. Short screen recordings and clips under a minute usually come through at 10MB looking essentially unchanged.
Frequently asked questions
Is 10MB really Discord's limit?
It's the standard limit for servers without a boost. Boosted servers get higher caps (50MB, 100MB) — if yours does, try the 25MB or 50MB tool instead for better quality.
Does WavyVid add a watermark?
Never. There's no watermark, no branding overlay, and no account required — the output is just your video, smaller.
How long does compressing to 10MB take?
A couple of minutes of footage usually takes under 30 seconds on a modern laptop, since everything runs two encoding passes locally. Longer files take proportionally longer.
Can I pick a different size than 10MB?
Yes — head to the main compress tool to enter any custom target size.
