Why people compress video to 50MB

A 50MB target is useful when the original clip is too large for a strict upload limit, attachment cap, or lightweight sharing workflow.

Fit strict file-size limits

Shrink the file before uploading so you can avoid size errors at the last step.

Keep uploads and attachments lighter

A smaller export is easier to attach, send, and preview across different devices and connections.

Compress locally in the browser

Work on-device when you want a private workflow without moving the source file to a remote editor.
