Batch convert and compress audio, video and images, and extract audio, in the browser.

Who is Format Factory best for?

Format Factory is best for people who need to convert or compress media files in a browser, often in batches.

  • Converting without installing anything

    It runs in any modern browser and cloud servers do the processing, so it works the same on Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebooks and phones.

  • Batches that need the same output

    Up to 50 files share one format and settings, any single file can keep its own override, and each one shows its own progress.

  • Pulling audio out of video

    Dedicated Video to MP3 and MP4 to MP3 pages save the soundtrack of a clip as an audio file.

  • Shrinking large MP4 and MP3 files

    Compression by percentage or target size handles files up to 12 GB on the Pro plan.

How much does Format Factory cost?

Format Factory is free for 10 credits a day and files up to 250 MB, and its paid plans cost $9, $19 or $69 a month (Starter, Plus, Pro), with Plus and Pro cheaper when billed yearly.
