Plumex — Video Downloader

About

Plumex — Video Downloader for Telegram Web

Save videos from Telegram Web to your computer in one click. Plumex detects the video you're watching on web.telegram.org and downloads the original MP4 straight to disk — with a progress bar, parallel chunks for speed, and tidy filenames.

Works on both Telegram Web clients: the "A" client (web.telegram.org/a/) and the "K" client (web.telegram.org/k/).

— WHAT IT DOES —
• Detects the video playing on Telegram Web automatically
• Downloads the original file — no screen-recording, no quality loss, it plays as-is
• Shows a live progress bar while the file streams to disk
• Pulls the file in parallel ranges, so large videos come down faster
• Lets you pick where to save, with a clean, readable filename

— FREE —
• Up to 3 downloads per day
• 2 parallel connections
• Simple filenames (telegram-<id>.mp4)

— PRO (one-time purchase — no subscription) —
• Unlimited downloads
• Faster downloads (6 parallel connections)
• Smart filenames built from the chat name, caption, and date
• Batch mode: multi-select several videos and save them all to one folder in a single run

Pay once and keep it — Pro is a one-time unlock, not a recurring fee. Checkout is handled securely by ExtensionPay (Stripe).

— HOW IT WORKS —
Telegram Web doesn't hand out videos as plain files; it streams them. Plumex asks the page for the same bytes the player already has access to and writes them to disk in order using the browser's native File System Access API. Big files are streamed in bounded chunks, so memory stays low even on long videos. Nothing is re-encoded — the saved MP4 is the original and plays in any media player.

— PRIVACY —
• Plumex runs entirely in your browser. There is no Plumex server, so your videos and downloads never pass through us.
• No analytics, no tracking, no collection of your browsing history.
• Network access is limited to Telegram Web (to read the video you're viewing) and ExtensionPay (only for Pro checkout and license status).
• Permissions explained: "storage" remembers your tier and daily count; "tabs" opens the download tab and messages your active Telegram tab; site access covers web.telegram.org and extensionpay.com.

— COMPATIBILITY —
• Chrome and Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, and similar), Manifest V3
• Telegram Web "A" and "K" frontends
• A separate Firefox build is also available

— FAQ —
