Free video hosting, without ads

Hosting a video on a consumer platform means accepting ads, tracking and suggested videos at the end of playback. This tool hands you a clean playback link and an embed code, with no account to create and nothing to install.

Drop your file: Videas encodes it into multi-quality adaptive streaming, then hands you a player you can set up — autoplay, loop, chapters, controls — and paste onto your site, your intranet or your training platform. The tutorial embed a video on your website covers WordPress, Wix, Webflow, Squarespace and Notion. Without an account the tool takes 2 GB and ten minutes of video, and the link stays live for seven days; to keep the video, follow its audience or restrict playback to your own domains, create a free account or see the full offer on the Video Hosting page. The account is not bought: you pay for what you use, and the Pricing page says how much. The player is configured — and seen in action — in the demos.


Host a video in 3 steps

  1. 1. Drop your video

    Drag your file into the tool. Without an account: 2 GB and 10 minutes of video at most. Multi-quality encoding starts right away, with no sign-up and nothing to install.

  2. 2. Copy the link and the code

    Your video plays in the Videas player. Copy the share link, or the embed code to paste on your own site.

  3. 3. Create an account to keep it

    The free link stays live for 7 days. A free account makes it permanent, keeps the same address, and adds playback analytics.

Video hosting in 3 steps

A player set up, then pasted

Chapters, multilingual subtitles, adaptive quality, picture-in-picture: the Videas player embeds in one line of code and is configured through parameters — autoplay, muted start, loop, controls or chapter buttons. Copy the code once and it renders the same everywhere, with no ads and no suggested videos.

  • Views, completion, engagement

    Views, average watch time, completion rate, engagement heatmap and top content. Understand how your videos perform and refine your strategy.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account to host a video?

No. Uploading, encoding, the playback link and the embed code all work without an account: you drop a file and you leave with everything needed to publish it. The free account is what keeps the video beyond seven days and tracks its audience.

How long does the link stay live?

Seven days for an upload without an account. A free account makes the link permanent without changing its address: the embed code already pasted on your site keeps working, and you have nothing to replace. After seven days without an account, the video and its link are erased.

What are the limits of the free tool?

Two gigabytes per file, ten minutes of video, and seven days of retention. All three are stated before the upload. From a Videas account, size rises to one hundred gigabytes per file, duration is no longer capped, and the video stays online for as long as you want.

How do I upload a video?

Drag the file into the tool. The upload starts right away and encoding follows: Videas builds several quality levels so playback adapts to each viewer's connection. There is nothing to configure, and you can leave the page — the video is waiting when you come back.

Which formats are supported?

The common video formats: MP4, MOV, WebM and the usual containers. Videas always re-encodes into adaptive streaming, so the format you upload changes nothing about playback — what counts is the output file, and it is the same one for every viewer you have.

Can the player be customized?

Yes. Colors, logo, buttons and thumbnail follow your brand, and the embed code's parameters drive the behaviour: autoplay, muted start, loop, whether controls or chapters are shown. You copy the code once, and it renders the same thing everywhere you paste it.

Can I add chapters and subtitles?

Yes, both are built into the Videas player. Chapters make a long video navigable and appear in the playback bar. Subtitles are generated automatically with Scribe, corrected by hand, and several languages can sit on the same video at once.

How do I embed the video on my site?

You copy an iframe embed code and paste it into your page — WordPress, Wix, Webflow, Squarespace, Notion or a hand-built site, the principle is the same. An API and a custom domain are available for deeper integrations, from an account.

Are there any ads or recommendations?

No. No advertising before, during or after playback, no suggested video at the end, no third-party logo in the player. It is the most visible difference from a video published on a consumer platform: your viewer stays on your content instead of drifting elsewhere.

Can playback be restricted to certain sites?

Yes, from an account. Domain restriction allows playback only on the addresses you list: the video embedded on your site works, while the same iframe copied elsewhere does not play. It is the setting for training content and internal communications.

Which analytics are available?

Views, average watch time, completion rate and an engagement map showing which passages are watched and which are skipped. All the data can be exported. They come with the free account: an anonymous upload produces none, since it is attached to nobody.

Is my viewers' data exploited?

No. No advertising tracker in the player, no data resale, no profile built on your viewers by a third party. The audience statistics come back to you alone: they are measured to tell you about your own content, not to feed an advertising market.

Where are the videos hosted?

In France, on GDPR-compliant servers, with no transfer outside the European Union. What matters wherever you are is what happens to them there: your videos are never scanned, never indexed and never resold, and you know which law they fall under.

What does it cost once the free tier runs out?

There is no subscription: €0.20 per hour of video stored per month and €0.02 per GB delivered, with the first terabyte free every month. You get €5 in credits at signup, then €5 free every month. The full breakdown is on the Pricing page.

Can a video be password-protected?

From an account, yes. A video can ask for a password before it plays, cap its number of viewings or expire on a chosen date, and domain restriction stops it being replayed anywhere but your own pages. The free upload does not offer those settings yet.
