Articles on: Publishing your videos

Can I Download My Video and Host It on Another Platform?

Yes. You can download your OneTake video as a standard MP4 file and host it anywhere you choose. OneTake does not restrict where your finished video can be published. Once your video has been processed and exported, you are free to upload it to any platform, website, or hosting provider that supports MP4 video files.

How It Works

After editing your video inside OneTake:

Export your video as an MP4 file.
Download the file to your computer.
Upload the MP4 file to any external platform or hosting service.

There are no platform lock-ins. Hosting and distribution decisions are entirely yours.

Where You Can Host Your Downloaded Video

You can upload your exported video to:

YouTube
Vimeo
Wistia
Social media platforms
Learning Management Systems (LMS)
Membership platforms
Internal company portals
Your own website or landing pages
Any third-party video hosting provider that accepts MP4 files

If a platform allows MP4 uploads, your OneTake video will be compatible.

OneTake Hosting vs External Hosting

OneTake also provides its own hosting and player options. However, using external hosting is completely supported. When you export your video, you receive a standard MP4 file. This file behaves like any normal video file and can be stored, shared, embedded, or distributed independently of OneTake. You are not required to use OneTake hosting if you prefer another solution.

Why Some Creators Choose External Hosting

Some users prefer to host externally for reasons such as:

Using a specific platform’s built-in audience, such as YouTube
Leveraging platform-specific analytics tools
Integrating videos into existing websites or funnels
Using membership systems or paywall platforms
Managing video storage internally

OneTake focuses on helping you create and edit professional videos efficiently. Where and how you host them is fully under your control.

Important Considerations

Export availability may depend on your subscription plan. For example, watermark removal or usage limits may vary by plan. You can check the Pricing page to confirm the exact export features included in your plan. Aside from plan-based export differences, there are no technical restrictions preventing you from downloading and hosting your videos elsewhere.

Your workflow can be simple:

Create and edit in OneTake.
Export your MP4 file.
Upload and host wherever you prefer.

This gives you complete flexibility over distribution and publishing.
