Shrink videos by up to 90%.

About
About ShrinkIt.
Features
What ShrinkIt does.
- 01
Drag, drop, done
Drop videos or whole folders onto the window, or right-click them in Finder and choose Compress with ShrinkIt. You see the estimated size before you start.
- 02
Fast and private
Hardware-accelerated compression runs right on your Mac using native macOS APIs. Nothing is uploaded, ever.
- 03
Compare before you commit
Slide between the original and the compressed video side by side, with file sizes and frame rates in view.
- 04
Made for big batches
Smart skipping leaves already-small videos alone, interrupted batches resume where they stopped, and a CSV report shows what every file saved.
- 05
Control when you want it
Seven quality levels tuned to each video, plus resizing, frame rate and audio quality. Resize landscape to portrait with a blurred background.
- 06
ShrinkIt PRO
Hit an exact file size for Email, Discord or GitHub, use HEVC for files up to half the size, save presets, and watch a folder to compress new videos automatically.
