# A Clideo alternative for compressing and trimming video

ToolSugar is our product. We are not affiliated with Clideo. We checked its public pages on 2026-11-07, and its limits and prices can change.

ToolSugar is a Clideo alternative that compresses, trims and converts video in your browser, with no watermark and no credits. Your own device does the encoding, so a large file takes time. Clideo Pro accepts larger uploads and exports 4K.
