Compress Videos for Sharing and Upload

Uncompressed or poorly compressed video files cause real problems: uploads that time out, shared links that buffer endlessly, storage that fills up faster than expected, and email attachments that platforms reject outright. Most video tools record at maximum quality by default, leaving file size optimisation as a manual afterthought.

The compress skill takes a video URL and returns a compressed version that is significantly smaller while remaining visually comparable to the original. Modern codecs like H.264 and H.265 enable substantial size reduction without obvious quality degradation at typical viewing sizes.

Content creators sending review files to clients, teams archiving recorded meetings, and developers embedding video in applications all use this to get files small enough to work with without sacrificing watchability.
