Beat TikTok's compression. Keep your frames.
TikTok caps every upload to 720p · 30 fps. The Kayn Method gets your full 1080p or 4K through at 60 fps, 1:1 with your source. No re-encoding. No quality loss.

- Add your music into your edit before exporting. TikTok's own audio will not survive the upload. (Need a promo sound? See the extension below.)
- Just drop your export in — no other tools needed. Kayn Method 2.0 prepares the video for you. Any MP4 works.
- Do not edit the video inside TikTok after uploading. Editing in TikTok forces a re-encode and ruins the quality.
- Upload the patched file from your PC browser at tiktok.com/upload, not the mobile app.
- After uploading, TikTok may show your video in low quality for a few minutes while it finishes processing. This is normal. Give it some time and it will sharpen up to full quality.
Adding a promo sound on TikTok?
Adding a sound inside TikTok normally re-compresses your video. Get the Kayn browser extension if you need to add a promo / trending sound — it lets you post with the sound without TikTok re-encoding, so your quality stays. (Chrome / Edge, load unpacked — see the README inside.)

This is just a guide to avoid upload problems and laggy playback on TikTok. You can still patch files outside these settings at your own risk.

FAQ
The straight answers.
What exactly does this preserve on TikTok?+
Both resolution and framerate. TikTok normally caps your upload to 720p, 30 fps regardless of what you sent in. With the Kayn Method, your full 1080p (or 4K) at 60 fps (or 120 fps) gets through 1:1 with your source.
Does it work for 4K and 120 fps too?+
Yes. The method supports the full range — 1080p 60, 1080p 120, 4K 60, and 4K 120. For the closed beta server you'll want shorter clips so the export stays under 100 MB (1080p 60 fps at ≤30 s is the easy zone; 4K 60 fps fits if you keep it under ~15 s).
Will my video play any differently after patching?+
No. Same quality, same duration, same audio, same colors. The patched file is the same length and plays identically — your video editor and any player you open it in will see no difference.
Do I need any other software?+
No. Kayn Method 2.0 does everything itself — just drop your MP4 in and download the patched file. Earlier versions needed a HandBrake export first; that step is gone.
Does my video get uploaded anywhere?+
No. Everything runs inside your own browser — your video never leaves your device and is never sent to a server. That also means there is no waiting in a queue.
Why does it only work from desktop tiktok.com/upload?+
The TikTok mobile app does an extra transcoding pass on every video before submission. That pass undoes the patch. The desktop web upload skips it.
Will TikTok add a watermark or caption to my post?+
No. We don't add anything to your file, and we don't touch your TikTok caption. Whatever you type in TikTok's caption box is what gets posted.
How long do you keep my video?+
One hour, then it's deleted automatically. No accounts, no analytics, no third parties.
How does it work?+
It's a method. It works. That's what you need to know.
