MediaOptim
Free up Mac storage without deleting anything — one-time price.
MediaOptim is a Mac application that compresses videos, photos, and audio files locally on your device, freeing up 40–70% of storage space without any perceived quality loss. All processing happens on-device with no cloud uploads, offering a privacy-first alternative to iCloud storage subscriptions. It is available as a one-time purchase with a free tier limited to 10 files per month.
Users drag and drop files or folders into MediaOptim, which automatically compresses them using optimized algorithms entirely on the local Mac without uploading anything to the cloud.
Mac users who are running low on storage and want to keep their files without paying for cloud storage
