Paste any public Ted URL into the box at the top of this page and click Download. Your file is ready in a few seconds — no signup, no install.
Ted hosts lectures, courses, and educational video. Downloads let you study offline — useful on planes, trains, or anywhere bandwidth is unreliable.
No — Downloader doesn't sign in to Ted. Anything Ted serves publicly can be downloaded without authentication on either side.
Ted videos download as MP4 with the source resolution preserved (up to 4K where the upload supports it). Audio + video tracks are pre-merged.
Yes. We pass through whatever Ted serves — no re-encoding, no recompression, no resolution downgrade. What you see playing on Ted is exactly what you download.
Ted has no platform-specific gotchas worth flagging. The standard paste-and-download flow handles it cleanly.
No. Ted sees a normal page-load request; the poster receives no notification. Downloads are anonymous from the platform's perspective.
Yes. Open Downloader in your mobile browser, paste a Ted link, and tap Download. The file saves to your Photos / Files / Music app — no separate app required.
Processing on our side is constant — typically under a second. Actual download time after that depends on the file size and your internet connection.
Free accounts have a daily download cap (counted across all platforms, not just Ted). Pro accounts remove the cap entirely and add priority processing.
Ted is widely used in professional contexts — research, journalism, design, archival. Downloads preserve the metadata where Ted exposes it, useful for citation.
Downloading content you have the right to save — your own posts, content released under an open license, public-domain material — is standard fair use in most jurisdictions. For anything else, respect copyright and Ted's terms.
Note, we store nothing, everything is piped to you, even the images are piped as base64 to your browser.
