ReClip running locally — video download in progress

What it does

Everything you need,
nothing you don't.

ReClip is intentionally minimal — a single Python file backend, a single-page frontend, and zero build steps.

1000+ Sites
Powered by yt-dlp — supports every site yt-dlp supports, including YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter/X, and many more.
MP4 & MP3
Toggle between video and audio mode. MP3 extraction powered by ffmpeg for clean, high-quality audio.
Quality Picker
Choose your preferred resolution before downloading. ReClip fetches all available formats first.
Bulk Downloads
Paste multiple URLs at once — separated by spaces, commas, or newlines. Download all in one click.
Auto-deduplication
Duplicate URLs in your paste are automatically removed before processing. No repeated downloads.
Zero Dependencies*
Frontend is vanilla HTML/CSS/JS — no framework, no build step. Backend is just Flask + yt-dlp.
Self-hosted
Runs entirely on your machine. No accounts, no tracking, no cloud — your downloads stay private.
Docker Support
Single-command Docker setup. Containerised and isolated — no system dependencies required.
MP3 Mode

Audio extraction,
beautifully simple.

Switch to MP3 mode to extract clean audio from any video. ReClip uses ffmpeg under the hood for high-quality audio conversion.

No Python, no ffmpeg, no yt-dlp required on your system. The Docker image bundles everything.
docker build -t reclip . && docker run -p 8899:8899 reclip
Under the hood

Deliberately minimal.

ReClip is designed to be as thin as possible. The backend is ~150 lines of Python. No React, no webpack, no ORM.
