Circle.so has no native download button. Tella recordings expire. Loom auto-deletes older videos on free plans. Course platforms embed videos from multiple sources with no unified download option.

Circle Downloader handles all of them in one extension — detecting videos across 7+ platforms and converting HLS/DASH streams to standard MP4 files directly in your browser. Open a lesson or post with a video, click the extension icon, pick your quality, and it saves as MP4.

• Multi-platform detection — Circle.so, Tella.tv, Loom.com, YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, and generic embedded players
• Finds hidden embeds — detects players buried inside Circle.so web components
• Stream-to-MP4 conversion — converts HLS/DASH streaming video to downloadable MP4 in-browser
• Quality selector — all available resolutions per platform with bitrate and estimated file size
• Concurrent downloads — up to 3 simultaneous downloads with real-time progress, speed, and cancel
• Batch download queue — add multiple lessons and process them automatically
• YouTube URL display — one-click yt-dlp copy for Mac and Windows
• Right-click context menu — quick downloads without opening the popup
• Auto-organized storage — saves to a Circle Downloader subfolder in Downloads
• Desktop notifications — alerts when downloads complete or fail
• Original quality preserved — no re-encoding, no watermarks, no quality loss
• Privacy-first — all processing on-device, zero tracking, no data sent to external servers
• 100% privacy-friendly — no tracking or data collection
• 1-on-1 support via our community

Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Firefox, Whale, and Yandex — on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Key Points:

• Your existing Circle login is used automatically in the background
• No separate passwords or credentials needed
• Works for private communities, restricted posts, and member-exclusive lessons
• Downloads happen entirely on your device with no data sent to third parties

Circle.so is a community platform for creators, educators, and businesses to host courses, coaching programs, and member communities. However, like many course platforms, they don't provide a way to download the videos that you (the actual users) pay for access to — or even offer an offline viewing option.

So we created a way for you to download your Circle.so community videos even if you're not technically inclined.
