Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Max, and I built SquishVideo because I was frustrated with one simple problem: sharing videos on Discord. Every time I wanted to send a gameplay clip or a funny moment, I'd hit the "Your files are too powerful" wall. I tried HandBrake (way too many settings), 8mb.video (Discord-only, often slow), random online converters (sketchy, watermarks, forced signups). None of them did what I actually needed: compress a video to fit a specific platform's limit, quickly, with no BS. So I built SquishVideo. Here's what makes it different: → You pick a platform (Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, Email), and it targets the exact size limit automatically → Compression runs in your browser — your video never uploads to any server → No signup, no watermark, no limit on number of videos → Works on phone too — just open the site in Safari or Chrome The tech: it uses FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, running entirely client-side. Your files stay on your device. I'd love to hear your feedback: - What platforms/limits should I add next? - Would batch compression be useful? - Any features you'd want that other compressors are missing?
