Link Converter

Paste anything, get a file.

One box for video, audio, images and documents — you never have to pick a tool first. No sign-up, no watermark, and files are deleted two hours after they're made (six for results over 2 GB, a day with a Pro pass).

Help keep LinksConverter free and growing

I run LinksConverter on my own and pay for the servers myself — I started it with borrowed money. Your support keeps it free, with no ads. Nothing changes if you don’t.

A thousand sources

YouTube, Vimeo, SoundCloud and 1000+ more — plus any video, audio, image or document you upload.

Virus-scanned

Files up to 2 GB are virus-scanned, except video and audio over 1 GB (or one whose scan runs out of time): those are rebuilt from their streams and delivered unscanned, and the download page says so.

Deleted after two hours

A download link works for anyone who has it until the file is deleted. Files are deleted two hours after they are made (six for a result over 2 GB, a day if the job was started with a Pro pass), by a cleanup that runs every 15 minutes.

What makes this different

One box, any link. Most converters make you find the right tool before you can start — pick a category, pick a source format, pick a target. Here the same box takes a YouTube URL, an Instagram Reel, a 200-page PDF or a HEIC photo off an iPhone, works out what it is, and offers you what it can turn it into. The only thing you need to know is what you want back.

Files don't stay. Files up to 2 GB are virus-scanned on the way through, except video and audio over 1 GB (or one whose scan runs out of time), which are rebuilt from their streams and delivered unscanned (the download page says so). Files are served over a private link and deleted from the servers two hours later (six for a result over 2 GB, a day with a Pro pass, up to seven days if you ask for a failed job to be retried by email) by a cleanup that runs every 15 minutes — not just a policy written on a page. What we do keep, such as the links people convert, is listed in the privacy policy. Tools that run entirely in your browser — the password generator, the image resizer, the QR generator — never upload anything at all.

No watermark, no sign-up. None of the usual downloader tax: nothing burned into the corner of your video, no login wall between you and the file, and no decoy buttons that download something else. About twenty conversions an hour without a Pro pass, signed in or not; that limit exists to keep the queue moving. The optional Pro pass, when offered, raises it, along with the size of bulk jobs and uploads.

The platforms nobody else bothers with. The big names are table stakes. What is harder to find is a downloader that handles a Medal.tv clip with the game audio intact, a Kick clip, a Streamable link before it is pruned for inactivity, or a Tenor GIF as the MP4 it actually is. Around twenty platforms have their own page here, on top of the thousand-plus sites the extraction layer knows.

Some things genuinely will not work, and it is worth saying so plainly: private and login-only posts, DRM-protected streaming like Netflix or Prime, and videos the uploader lets play only on their own website. Those are limits the platforms set, and no tool that respects the law works around them.

Frequently asked questions

Is LinksConverter free to use?
Yes. Without a Pro pass, signed in or not, you can convert about 20 links an hour (the limit counts requests, 60 an hour, and one conversion takes two or three), with no sign-up, no email and no watermark. Signing in is free and optional: it raises the limit for a single upload from 2 GB to 4 GB. Files up to 2 GB are virus-scanned, except video and audio results over 1 GB, which are delivered without a scan, and the download page says so. An optional Pro pass, when offered, raises the limits: 500 requests an hour, 50 links per bulk job instead of 20, uploads up to 5 GB, and files kept 24 hours instead of 2. It does not make downloads faster. When one address converts a lot in an hour without signing in, its later jobs wait behind other people's first ones, for up to about ten minutes.
How long are my converted files stored?
Every output file is held on encrypted storage for 2 hours (6 hours for a result over 2 GB, 24 hours for a job started with a Pro pass, and up to 7 days if you left your email to have a failed job retried) and is then permanently deleted by a cleanup that runs every 15 minutes, normally within 15 minutes of that time. The download link works for anyone who has it until the file is deleted.
Do you log the URLs I paste or the files I upload?
Yes. Each job keeps the link you pasted in its record for a week, then only the site it was on, with no IP address or account attached, and our application logs keep it for about a week too. Our server logs, kept up to 30 days, record your IP address and the pages you open; a link inside a page address is blanked before the line is written. We never open or read the contents of your files; files up to 2 GB are scanned with ClamAV before they are converted, except video and audio over 1 GB. The privacy policy lists everything we keep.
Which sites can I download videos from?
LinksConverter supports YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X (Twitter), Facebook, Vimeo, SoundCloud, Reddit, and over 1,000 other public video sites covered by our yt-dlp engine. Private and password-protected videos are not supported.
