VideoGrab is a browser-based utility for saving videos you own, openly licensed material, or content you are permitted to download. It works with dozens of public web sources and can provide source-dependent video quality from 360p through 4K. Videos can be downloaded in available quality, while audio can be extracted as MP3. Playlist and subtitle downloads are supported. Subtitle options may include creator captions, auto-generated captions, and translations into more than 100 languages, with SRT or VTT files when available. Additional tools download thumbnails, extract tags and keywords, and trim clips. The clip tool stream-copies video without re-encoding; cuts may move by a second or two to the nearest keyframe, and very long videos are capped. No account is required. The Free plan is free, with no subscription, payment, or signup. Submitted links may remain in limited-period server logs, while generated files are deleted immediately after delivery. The service uses HTTPS and is supported by advertising.
Who it is for
VideoGrab suits creators archiving their own uploads, educators using openly licensed material, and researchers or journalists preserving public-domain footage. Use requires permission to download the material.
