Reclaim your disk space — without sacrificing quality
Drop in a whole folder of videos and shrink them with H.265, AV1 or VP9. On our 11-clip test set, H.265 on an NVIDIA GPU cut 254.9 MB to 128.4 MB and no file came out bigger. No visible quality loss, no upload, no subscription, all on your PC.
Modern Video Codecs
Re-encode your videos with next-generation compression for massive space savings.
Hardware Accelerated
Encode on your graphics card with NVIDIA NVENC, Intel QSV or AMD AMF. On an RTX 3080, H.265 encoded 8–17× faster than on a Ryzen 9 3900X (6 clips).
Smart Presets
Choose from 24 built-in presets, among them Phone Video Archive, YouTube Raw Footage, Security Camera Archive and Wedding / Event Archive.
Batch Processing
Drop entire folders and let the multi-worker queue process hundreds of videos while you focus on other work.

What Users Say
I freed up over 800 GB on my NAS by re-encoding old surveillance footage. The GPU acceleration made it surprisingly fast.
Perfect for archiving wedding videos. My clients get smaller files to share, and the quality is indistinguishable from the originals.
I was skeptical about AV1, but the savings are incredible. My YouTube raw files went from 50 GB to under 15 GB each.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Your original files are never touched. VideoRecompress Studio creates new compressed copies and leaves the originals exactly as they are.
Yes. All resolutions are supported, from standard definition up to 8K. Hardware acceleration makes high-resolution encoding fast and practical.
NVIDIA NVENC (GeForce GTX/RTX), Intel Quick Sync Video (QSV), and AMD AMF (Radeon RX). The software automatically detects your GPU and falls back to software encoding if needed.
VideoRecompress Studio is purpose-built for batch recompression. You get smart presets, one-click GPU acceleration, multi-worker batch processing, built-in trimming, GIF creation, and dedicated support — all without manual configuration.
30-day free trial: your first 10 files convert with no watermark; after that files get a watermark and a 10-minute cap. Buying removes both.
