TikTok size limit?
TikTok caps uploads at 287 MB but its encoder gets aggressive past 100 MB. The 60 MB target gives high quality without triggering TikTok's worst re-compression.

01 / 03
60 MB H.264 vertical is TikTok's quality sweet spot — high enough that TikTok's encoder doesn't murder your file, low enough to upload fast on cellular. Cloud-rendered H.265 / AV1 squeezes any MP4, MOV, or WebM down to your exact size target with no watermark — no Handbrake, no install, no popup ads.

The compressor finds the highest-quality H.265 or AV1 settings that still hit your target size. You don't set bitrates — you set the size, and the encoder figures out the rest.
Step 01
Drag any MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, or MKV — up to 20 GB on Pro.
Step 02
Select the TikTok preset (or type your exact size).
Step 03
Cloud-encoded MP4 hits your dashboard in under 2 minutes, ready for TikTok uploads.

Always, but starting from a high-quality 60 MB H.264 file produces a final TikTok render that looks dramatically better than uploading from a phone-recorded 1 GB master.
9:16 (vertical) is required. Anything else gets letterboxed in the FYP. The compressor preserves aspect — crop or pad before uploading.
Only if you downloaded from TikTok with watermark. Most uploads start from raw camera footage with no watermark. If you need to remove a TikTok watermark first, use the dedicated TikTok-to-MP4 saver.
