Best for

People who keep hitting upload limits or running out of disk space because of large media files.

Why it deserves attention

Compresto handles MP4, MOV, images, GIFs, and PDFs in one queue, using hardware acceleration for video and quality presets for the rest. It watches folders and compresses new files automatically, accepts drops on a floating zone, converts clips to GIF, and can run from Raycast. Everything happens locally, and version 1.31 added EPUB support. A one-time licence covers one Mac with lifetime updates, or two Macs on the Standard tier. The trade-off is macOS only and a narrower set of formats than dedicated video encoders.
