About 25MB Video Compression for Email
Gmail caps attachments at 25MB (the same limit applies to most providers like Outlook and Yahoo), and files close to the cap can still fail on stricter receivers. This tool re-encodes your video in the browser until it fits comfortably under 25MB, keeping as much quality as the budget allows. Everything runs locally — the video is never uploaded. Whether you are optimizing for the NBN, preparing myGov submissions, or sharing files across Australia's vast distances, this tool keeps your files light and quick to transfer — even on regional, fixed-wireless, and satellite connections, with no upload required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Gmail’s attachment size limit?
Gmail allows up to 25MB per email across all attachments. Outlook.com and Yahoo use the same 25MB cap, while some corporate servers accept only 10–20MB.
Why compress below 25MB instead of right at it?
Email encoding adds a few percent of overhead, and stricter receiving servers may reject anything near the cap. Aiming for 24MB or less avoids bounced messages.
How long can a 25MB video be?
Typically 10–20 minutes at 480p or 3–5 minutes at 720p, depending on scene complexity. The compressor maximizes quality within the size budget.
My video is still too big. What else can I do?
Compress to 10MB with the Discord preset, split the clip, or upload to a cloud drive and share the link instead of attaching the file.
