How it works

  1. 1

    Drop your WebM file

    Drag any .webm file in or click to choose. Files up to 500 MB are supported — no account required, no per-day cap, no waiting room.

  2. 2

    Click Convert to MP4

    Native ffmpeg on our server transcodes VP8 / VP9 video to H.264 at CRF 22 and Opus audio to AAC at 160 kbps. Output is muxed into MP4 with +faststart for instant streaming playback.

  3. 3

    Download your MP4

    The finished MP4 is delivered through Bunny CDN. Plays on every device, every browser, and every social platform that takes MP4 uploads.

Why this is the fastest WebM to MP4 converter on the web

WebM to MP4 always requires a full transcode (VP8/VP9 cannot live inside an MP4 container). Browser ffmpeg.wasm tools handle that single-threaded with a ~2 GB cap and often 5–10× slower than native; they also outright fail on bigger files. We rebuilt the pipeline: presigned upload to the nearest Backblaze B2 POP, native ffmpeg on our server, output delivered through Bunny CDN. A 1080p clip usually clears in 5–10 seconds.

When you need to convert a WebM to MP4

Every browser-based screen recorder hands you a .webm — Chrome's built-in recorder, OBS's WebRTC mode, Loom downloads, our own Clipy web recorder. Most of the time the next thing you want to do is upload to iMessage, drop in a Slack DM, or send to a Windows colleague — and that is when the universal compatibility gap bites. Converting WebM to MP4 once solves it permanently.

No file size limit — up to 500 MB

Most online converters impose a 50–200 MB cap because they pay per gigabyte of bandwidth and CPU. Our pipeline is direct-to-B2 storage with a flat conversion cost, so the cap sits at 500 MB — large enough to cover almost every screen recording. For multi-hour 4K captures, the Clipy desktop app ships native ffmpeg with no cap at all.

Why this is the fastest WebM to MP4 converter on the web

WebM to MP4 always needs a full transcode because VP8/VP9 (inside WebM) and H.264 (inside MP4) are different codecs — there is no remux shortcut. Browser ffmpeg.wasm tools run that transcode single-threaded with a ~2 GB ceiling, often 5–10× slower than native ffmpeg on the same machine, and they outright fail above ~200 MB. We rebuilt the pipeline. Your file uploads via a presigned URL straight to the nearest Backblaze B2 storage POP — fast everywhere. Native ffmpeg on our server runs the VP8/VP9 → H.264 transcode (yuv420p target, +faststart MP4 packaging, AAC audio at 160 kbps). The finished MP4 is delivered through Bunny CDN. A typical 1080p clip clears in 5–10 seconds end-to-end.

Why convert WebM to MP4?

WebM is what Chrome's MediaRecorder API outputs by default, so it's what most browser-recorded video starts as — Loom downloads, Clipy's web recorder, OBS WebRTC streams. The problem: WebM does not play in iMessage, in Safari without dependencies, in Windows Media Player, or on most social platforms that take video uploads. MP4 is the universal answer.

What this tool does, exactly

Server-side ffmpeg decodes the VP8 or VP9 video stream, re-encodes to H.264 at CRF 22 (yuv420p chroma, +faststart MP4 packaging), and transcodes the Opus or Vorbis audio to AAC at 160 kbps. Output plays natively in every browser, every mobile OS, every smart TV, and every video-accepting social platform.

Common questions

Is there a file size limit for converting WebM to MP4?

Up to 500 MB. Because we run native ffmpeg on the server (not browser ffmpeg.wasm), there is no browser memory ceiling — large WebMs that crash other online converters work here. For files above 500 MB, the desktop Clipy app runs native ffmpeg with no cap.

How do I convert a WebM file to MP4?

Drop the .webm file onto this page, click Convert to MP4, then click Download. The whole process takes 5–10 seconds for a typical 1080p clip. No account, no install required.

Why is converting WebM to MP4 not instant?

VP8/VP9 (inside WebM) and H.264 (inside MP4) are different codecs, so every frame must be decoded and re-encoded. This is a true transcode, not a remux. Native ffmpeg on our server is still 5–10× faster than browser ffmpeg.wasm on the same hardware.

Will I lose quality?

There is a small one-generation quality loss on the re-encode — typically imperceptible at CRF 22 unless you do a side-by-side comparison. For pure archival quality, keep the original WebM.

Why is the audio quieter than I expected?

We convert audio to AAC at 160 kbps. If you need to boost levels, use the desktop app or run the output through a separate audio normalizer.

Is my file private?

We accept the file over a presigned upload to our B2 storage POP, convert it on our server with native ffmpeg, and serve the result through Bunny CDN. The source and output are deleted within 24 hours. No signup is required.

Does this work on mobile?

Yes. iOS Safari, iPad, and Chrome / Edge on Android can all upload .webm files and download the finished MP4 — because the conversion runs on our server, there is no mobile memory ceiling.
