Live broadcast archives
Once an X live broadcast has ended, its archive can be saved as MP4. Paste the URL and a stream you missed — or a replay — is yours to keep. URLs in the form "https://x.com/i/broadcasts/○○○" are supported.
Videos attached to posts
Videos in ordinary posts can be saved too. URLs in the form "https://x.com/username/status/○○○" are supported, and the steps are identical to a live broadcast. GIFs (saved as MP4), videos in quoted posts and videos inside cards that introduce a website or app are supported as well. When a post has several videos, a URL ending in a number such as "/video/2" selects the second and later ones (the number counts images too and matches the URL X shows when you open the video).
On desktop and mobile alike
Works from a browser on Windows and Mac as well as on iOS and Android phones. There is no app to install.
How to use it

Frequently asked questions
Can I save an X live broadcast?
Yes. Once the broadcast has ended, its archive can be downloaded as MP4. URLs in the form "https://x.com/i/broadcasts/○○○" are supported, so streams you missed and replays can be kept.
Can I also save videos from ordinary posts?
Yes. URLs in the form "https://x.com/username/status/○○○" are supported. Paste one into the same field — there is no difference in how you use it. For a post with several videos, a URL without a number saves the first one; for the others, paste a URL ending in a number such as "/video/2".
Does it cost anything? Do I need an account?
It is free to use, and no account or sign-in is required. Paste a URL, press Run, and that is all.
Does it work on a smartphone?
Yes. It runs straight from the browser on iOS and Android with no app to install, and works the same way on Windows and Mac.
What format is used? Can I choose the quality?
Files are saved as MP4. You cannot choose the quality; the tool automatically picks the highest quality available. If the video uploaded to the original post is low quality, it is downloaded at that quality.
How long can I download the file for?
For 24 hours after processing completes. After that it is deleted from the server, so download it promptly once it is ready.
Why does processing take a while?
Downloads are queued to keep server load down, and longer broadcast archives take longer to process. If a great many requests arrive in a short period, new ones may be turned away temporarily. Up to 10 unfinished requests (Pending or Encoding) are accepted from one connection (the same IP address) at a time.
Is my download history kept?
It is stored in your browser's local storage, so it survives closing the page. You can clear any entry with Delete in the list (which does not affect processing on the server).
Can I transcribe the video I downloaded?
A separate tool, Transcriber — free AI audio transcription in your browser, handles this. It reads MP4 directly, your audio never leaves the browser, and speaker diarization is supported.
Can I compress the downloaded video or turn it into a GIF?
Yes, with Media Tools, another tool by the same author, right in your browser. It loads the MP4 as it is and can compress it, trim a range, make a GIF or extract just the audio. Videos never leave your device.
