Speed Up a Video

● Stays in your browser 100% of the time; nothing is uploaded.

Speed up a video to 1.5×, 2× or as far as 4×: a faster tutorial, a time-lapse feel from a long recording, a clip that has to fit a length limit. The page opens at 2×. Every frame is kept and only the timing changes, so nothing is skipped and nothing is re-compressed: a 10-minute screen recording at 2× becomes 5 minutes at the same sharpness. Kept audio speeds up with it and sounds higher; drop it for silent fast motion. It all runs in your browser, with no upload.

How it works

  1. Drop the video, or up to 20 for one batch. The page starts at 2×.
  2. Keep 2×, pick 1.5× or 4×, or type a value such as 3, and decide whether the audio stays.
  3. Press Process & download to save the faster MP4, with its new, shorter duration shown.

Questions

Does speeding up a video make the file smaller?
Not much. Every frame is copied unchanged, so the video data is the same size and only the running time shrinks; a 2× clip is about as large as the original. If the goal is a smaller file, run the faster clip through the video compressor afterwards, which can aim at an exact size in MB.
Will a sped-up video drop frames?
No. No frame is skipped or blended. A 30 fps clip at 2× becomes a 60 fps clip of the same frames played twice as fast, so the motion is the original motion compressed in time. At 4×, the same clip plays at 120 fps.
Can I speed up only part of a video?
Not inside one clip: the speed applies to the whole file. Cut the section you want with the video trimmer first, which copies it without re-encoding where it can, then speed that piece up here. Joining it back to the rest needs a video editor.
Does my file get uploaded?
No. The models and all processing run inside your browser on your own device. You can verify this yourself: open your browser’s DevTools, watch the Network tab, and process a file: there are no uploads. After the first visit most tools also work fully offline.
Does rotating re-encode the video?
No. The rotation is written into the MP4’s orientation metadata and the frames are copied unchanged, so it is near instant and loses no quality. A few third-party players ignore that flag; browsers and phones honour it.
What happens to the audio?
Rotate keeps it untouched. Reverse always drops it, since reversed speech is rarely what anyone wants. Speed changes keep it in sync, or you can drop it with one switch.
