Grabbit
Grabbit is a Windows application designed to download videos directly from platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and others. It operates entirely on the user's PC, avoiding ads, malware, and the need for an account. The tool addresses the limitations of free web-based video downloaders by supporting batch downloads, allowing users to download up to 50 videos at once, including entire channels and playlists.
A key feature of Grabbit is its ability to maintain true original quality, supporting resolutions up to 4K and 8K. It offers export options for ProRes and DNxHR formats, which are commonly used for video editing. The application avoids re-compression, ensuring that downloaded videos retain their original quality. Grabbit is powered by yt-dlp, an open-source video downloading engine, and includes a self-updating mechanism to adapt to changes on supported platforms.
The software is delivered as a downloadable Windows app, with a Chrome extension also available. All downloads and processing occur locally on the user's machine, providing privacy and reliability by not routing video links through external servers. Grabbit is available for free download, with additional Pro plans offered. The tool is intended for users who require a private, high-quality, and batch-capable solution for downloading videos from multiple online platforms.
