The fastest way to save social media videos
Most social platforms don't give you a built-in way to save someone else's video to your device. Our tool solves that in one paste: drop in the link from Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Threads, X, Pinterest, TikTok, Reddit, Snapchat or LinkedIn, and we fetch the video file so you get a clean MP4 you can watch offline.
It works entirely in your browser — there's nothing to install, no account to create, and no personal data required. Just the public link to the video you want. That makes it safe to use on any device, whether you're on a phone between classes or at a desktop editing a compilation.
Creators use it to archive their own content before it disappears from feeds, marketers use it to build swipe files of ad creative, and everyday users use it to keep a copy of a clip a friend sent them before it gets deleted. Whatever the reason, the flow stays the same: paste, preview, download.

- 2Paste it into the box above — the platform is detected automatically.

Frequently asked questions
