Build a Video Compressor with Claude Code

Build a Video Compressor web app. People search for "video compressor" about 443,000 times a month, plus related searches like "compress video online", "video file size reducer", "reduce video size". The goal is a tool that ranks for those searches and makes money.

What it should do:
Build a video compression web app. Create a homepage with a large drag-and-drop zone labeled 'Drop your video here to compress'. When users upload a video, show file details like size, format, and duration. Add compression settings with presets: 'High Quality', 'Balanced', 'Smallest Size'. Include a progress bar during compression and before/after file size comparison. Display estimated compression time and final file size. Add download button with format options (MP4, WebM, AVI). Use a modern design with blue and green accents. Focus on the upload and compression flow first.

How to build it:
1. Read this folder first. If it is empty, set up Next.js (App Router, TypeScript, Tailwind). Write a short PLAN.md with the pages, components, any library or API you need, and what you are leaving for later. Then build.
2. Put the tool itself on the homepage so a visitor can use it within seconds, with no sign-up. Do the processing in the browser where you can, so it is fast and cheap to run. Look at how VideoSmaller, HandBrake, Clipchamp do it and make ours simpler and faster.
3. Make it rank. Use "video compressor" in the title tag, H1 and meta description. Under the tool, add a short how-to and an FAQ with FAQPage schema, and add a sitemap and robots.txt. Scaffold these programmatic pages from one template and a data file: /compress-video-for-[platform], /video-compressor-[format], /reduce-[video-type]-file-size.
4. Monetisation: Freemium: 100MB file limit, $8/mo unlimited size + batch processing. Add a pricing page and the free usage limit, and leave Stripe checkout as a clearly marked stub with the environment variables it needs.
5. Run it locally and test the main flow end to end, including edge cases like empty input and very large files. Fix what breaks, then finish with a summary of what works, what is stubbed and how to deploy it to Vercel.

Paste it into Claude Code in an empty folder. It plans first, so read PLAN.md and steer before it starts building.
