MediaForge - Process, optimize & host media — all in your browser

Stop uploading sensitive media to random servers. MediaForge lets you convert, compress, resize, optimize, and strip metadata from images and videos entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device during processing. When you're ready to publish, instantly host and deliver assets with global CDN hosting, signed URLs and more — all from one privacy-first platform.

👋 Hey Product Hunt!

Aniket here, co-founder of MediaForge.

Before we wrote a single line of code, MediaForge founder Yadnesh and I kept running into the same frustrating workflow.

Every time we needed to convert, compress, or resize an image or video, we'd end up doing this:

🔍 Google "convert PNG to WebP"
🌐 Open a random website packed with ads
📤 Upload files to a server we knew nothing about
🤞 Hope our client's assets weren't being stored somewhere
🔁 Repeat the exact same process the next day

It worked—but it never felt right.

When you're working with client projects or sensitive assets, you shouldn't have to upload your files just to perform a basic media operation.

That simple frustration became the idea behind MediaForge.

🚀 What makes MediaForge different?

Instead of uploading your files to our servers, MediaForge processes your media directly in your browser.

That means:

✅ Convert formats locally
✅ Compress files locally
✅ Resize images locally
✅ Remove metadata locally

Your files never leave your device during processing.

Only when you choose to publish or share your optimized media do our cloud services step in—with CDN hosting, shareable links, signed URLs, and API access.

We believe privacy shouldn't be a premium feature—it should be the default.
