Stop uploading private videos to random cloud servers just to compress them. VideoShrink is a privacy-first Chrome Extension that compresses video files directly on your device using WebAssembly (FFmpeg). It runs 100% locally—no data ever leaves your browser. Features a smart Quality Slider to balance file size vs. clarity, supports MP4/MOV/MKV, and works entirely offline. It is the safest, fastest way to shrink videos for WhatsApp, Email, or Social Media.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m the maker of VideoShrink. I built this because I was frustrated with online video compressors. They are full of ads, impose arbitrary limits, and force you to upload private videos to servers you don't trust. I realized modern browsers are powerful enough to handle this locally. 🤓 The Tech Stack: I built VideoShrink using React, Vite, and FFmpeg WASM. It uses the new Chrome Offscreen API to run the compression engine in a hidden background thread, preventing the browser UI from freezing while processing heavy files. ✨ Why use this? Privacy: Zero data leaves your machine. Speed: No time wasted uploading/downloading. Offline: Works on an airplane or with spotty WiFi. I’m launching V1 today completely free. I’d love to hear what you think! 👇
