Works Everywhere
One Bot. Every Platform.
If it has a video and a URL, VidGrab probably handles it. Here are the most popular ones.
Live Simulation
Watch It Work in Real Time
This is exactly what happens when you send a link to the bot. No editing, no tricks — just a faithful replay.
Send Any URL
YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok — just paste the link in your Telegram chat with the bot.
Pick Your Format
Choose resolution, format (MP4, MP3, WEBM), and quality. The bot shows you all available options.
Get Your File
Downloaded on our server and sent directly to you. No links to click, no waiting in browser tabs.
Why VidGrab
Built for People Who Actually Download Videos
Not a wrapper around a shady API. A proper yt-dlp instance on dedicated hardware, exposed through the messenger you already have open.
Server-Side Downloading
Your phone doesn't do the heavy lifting. Our servers fetch, process, and compress — then send you the file. Saves bandwidth and battery.
No Sketchy Sites
No pop-ups, no fake download buttons, no malware. You stay inside Telegram the entire time. Zero exposure to ad networks.
Full Format Control
MP4, WEBM, MP3, FLAC — pick your resolution from 144p to 4K. Audio-only extraction for podcasts and music. You decide, not the site.
No Ads, Ever
Free video download sites survive by spamming you with ads. We don't have ads because we're a bot, not a website with ad inventory.
Proxy-Friendly
Our servers handle the geolocation. If a video is blocked in your region, our bot can still grab it. Works behind corporate firewalls and VPNs.
Always Updated
yt-dlp updates daily to handle site changes. We pull the latest version automatically. When YouTube changes something, we're patched within hours.

Why Not Just Use a Website?
