Designed for Power and Privacy

DownHush pairs a lightweight Windows service with a smart browser extension to give you seamless, instant downloads.

Parallel Chunking

Splits streaming video segments and file transfers into 8 parallel download threads. Dramatically cuts down download times compared to standard single-stream browser downloads.

🔒

100% Local Processing

DownHush runs entirely on your local machine using an offline companion server on port 8383. No third-party clouds process your links, keeping your download activity entirely private.

🔌

Browser Sniffer

Our Chrome Extension seamlessly detects media streams while you watch, showing a subtle overlay download button directly next to the video player. No copy-pasting required.

System Tray Integration

Runs Silently in the Background

DownHush operates as a lightweight, persistent system tray service in Windows. Once installed, you don't need to keep any heavy desktop UI open. When you click download in your browser, the companion server instantly spins up parallel threads, downloads the file to your specified directory, and notifies you when complete.

  • Configurable download destinations
  • SQLite local history database (kept locally)
  • Auto-starts with Windows (optional)
