Take the sound out of a video
Silence the whole clip, or just one stretch of it. The picture is copied across untouched, so there is nothing to re-render and the result arrives in seconds.
How to mute a video in three steps
Choose your video
Drag it onto the page or pick it from your device. MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM and AVI all work.
Say what to silence
Take out the whole soundtrack, or just one stretch between two times. The picture is left alone either way.
Save the silent video
Your browser saves the new file to your downloads folder. The original on your disk is untouched.
What happens to your file
It never leaves the tab
Removing sound usually means sending the video to somebody else's computer and getting a new one back. Here the work happens in the page you are already looking at. Your browser opens the file, the tool rewrites it, and the browser hands you the result.
- Opened from your disk by your browser — not sent anywhere first.
- Held in the tab while the tool works, then dropped.
- Saved to your device by your browser, not by a link to a server.
- Closing the tab clears the working copy completely.
- No account, so no file is ever attached to an identity.
- Nothing is recorded about what you muted.
Why not an upload site
An upload-based tool is a form that posts your video to someone else's machine. Take that step out and a lot of small annoyances disappear with it.

Questions
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No. Your browser reads the video from your disk and the tool works on it in the same tab. Nothing is transferred anywhere.
Does removing the sound reduce the picture quality?
No. The picture is copied across exactly as it was, without being rebuilt. The resolution, detail and colour are the same as the original.
Can I mute a long or 4K video?
Usually yes. What you can handle depends on your own device and how much room your browser has to work in. A laptop will manage more than a phone.
Why is the result ready so quickly?
Most tools rebuild every frame of the video. This one leaves the picture alone and only drops the sound, so there is far less work to do.
