What Clipmoth saves
Video on the page
The extension detects the stream a page is playing (news, VOD, social embeds) and saves it as a file in one click.
HLS streams (.m3u8)
The adaptive format used by news, live and VOD sites. Clipmoth downloads every segment, including AES-128 encrypted streams, and joins them into one file.
YouTube & social platforms
The Windows app downloads from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and 1,000+ other sites, in up to 4K/8K, with playlists and MP3.

Frequently asked questions
Is this really free?
Yes. The Chrome extension is unlimited for your first 30 days — no account, no watermark — and after that you keep 10 downloads a day for free. The Windows app is free for 10 downloads a day from the start. A one-time $9.99 purchase removes the limit in both.
Do my videos get uploaded to your servers?
No. Clipmoth works on your own device — the video goes straight from the source to your download, never through our servers.
Can I download from YouTube?
The browser extension saves video that plays on the page you're on. For YouTube, TikTok and 1,000+ sites in 4K/8K — with playlists and MP3 — the Windows desktop app is the right tool.
A download failed — why?
Some services use DRM (like Netflix or Prime Video) that no tool can save, or restrict access to logged-in users. In most other cases the desktop app succeeds where a browser extension can't, because it isn't bound by browser security rules.
What is the daily limit exactly?
Extension: unlimited for the first 30 days, then 10 downloads a day. Windows app: 10 downloads a day from day one. Downloads are counted on each device only. Premium removes the limit in every Clipmoth app.
Start with the free version
The Chrome extension is free to start. $9.99, paid once, removes the limits in both apps.
