Share a video you can watch right in the browser
You send a rough cut, draft, or recording: the recipient wants to watch without installing a player or waiting for a full download.
The built-in player streams in the browser. Up to 200 GB per send depending on your plan; viewing is free for the recipient with no sign-up.
For rushes, tutorials, or memories: playback starts in the browser. Recipients install nothing; they download only to keep or edit.
Why in-browser streaming
Downloading a large video just to see if it works wastes time and storage. With Explore mode, playback starts in the browser; the recipient downloads only if they need the file.
- 01
Prepare the video file
MP4, WebM, or MOV as you usually export. Check size against your send cap (up to 200 GB on the right plan).
- 02
Start the transfer
Drop the video on the send page. Free sends without an account cover common cases.
- 03
Check that Explore mode is on
Explore mode enables watch-before-download. Keep it on unless you have a specific reason not to.
- 04
Share the link
The recipient plays in the built-in player on the receipt page; no external player required.
What the recipient sees — watch a shared video without an installed player
Streaming playback, usual controls. No install: the browser on desktop or mobile (within mobile size limits when they apply).
Typical situations
Videographer
Send rushes for approval: watch before downloading heavy files.
Trainer
Share a lesson video: learners watch first, save later.
Individual
Send family clips: everyone can watch immediately.
