Mindvalley Video Downloader
Saves Mindvalley quest lessons, masterclasses and guided meditation videos as MP4s in a dedicated folder, so your course library stays with you.
Lessons That Leave With Your Membership
Quest modules, masterclass recordings and guided meditation videos on Mindvalley are only available while your membership is active. If it ends, that material disappears from your account, possibly mid-programme, and the total can run to hundreds of hours of personal development content.
Mindvalley Video Downloader lets you keep a copy that isn't tied to the account. Start a lesson, open the extension, choose a quality, and an MP4 is saved into a Mindvalley folder on your computer. You end up with one organized course library on your own drive that you can rewatch whenever you like.
Short-Lived Links and Multiple Players
Ordinary download tools tend to fail on Mindvalley because the video links it hands out expire quickly. By the time such a tool processes the address, it no longer works. This extension was built for that constraint and captures the video in the short window while the link is still valid.
Lessons stream over tokenized HLS, and the right stream addresses usually only show up after playback begins, which is why you start the lesson first. Mindvalley also doesn't use a single video host. Alongside its native player, lessons may embed Vimeo, YouTube, Loom, Wistia or SproutVideo, and the extension identifies whichever one a page uses and extracts from it accordingly. You never need to know how a particular lesson is hosted.
What You'll See While Saving
- Automatic detection of embedded players on Mindvalley lesson pages, with no setup
- A quality picker listing the resolution tiers available, each with an estimated file size
- Direct MP4 sources saved as they are, and HLS streams converted to MP4 automatically
- A progress overlay on the lesson page itself, so the popup can stay closed
- Files placed into a Mindvalley-specific folder structure inside your browser's default Downloads directory
Resolution choices depend on the source. Native Mindvalley HLS lessons offer the variants in their master playlist, while embedded players offer whatever renditions their own platform exposes. Detection, stream processing and MP4 creation all run in the browser with no uploads; outside connections are limited to checking activation, looking for updates, and fetching the lesson's own video from sources you're entitled to view.
Getting Set Up
Install the extension, verify your email with a one-time password to activate it, and sign in to your Mindvalley account in that browser. Then open a quest lesson or masterclass, let it play, click the icon and pick a quality. The finished MP4 can be played in any media player on any device.

FAQ
What do I need to do to save a Mindvalley lesson as a video file?
Start the lesson so its stream is active, click the extension, and choose a quality. It works out which source is playing and writes it to disk as an MP4.
Which kinds of Mindvalley material can I keep offline?
Anything recorded that your session can already open: quest videos, masterclasses and the rest of the course pages.
Why won't it work until the lesson is playing?
Lessons stream over tokenized HLS. Until the video starts, the right stream addresses usually haven't been requested, and the extension relies on that live request to assemble the file.
Some Mindvalley lessons embed Vimeo or YouTube players. Are those covered?
They are. Along with native Mindvalley video, the extension recognizes Vimeo, YouTube, Loom, Wistia and SproutVideo players embedded on Mindvalley pages.
How much control do I get over resolution?
That varies by source. Native Mindvalley HLS lessons offer whatever variants the master playlist contains, while embedded players offer the renditions their own platform makes available.
Where does the downloaded Mindvalley folder live?
It's created automatically within your browser's default Downloads directory, and every finished lesson is placed there.
Can I record a Mindvalley live event as it happens?
No. Live streams aren't captured; the tool is meant for lessons that have already been recorded.
Can I use it inside Mindvalley's mobile app?
No. It runs only as a desktop browser extension on Mindvalley.com and similar desktop sessions.
Which desktop browsers and systems are supported?
Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave, Opera, Whale and Yandex all have desktop builds for Windows, macOS and Linux. There's no Safari or mobile-browser support.
What, if anything, does the extension connect to remotely?
Just activation, update checks, and the video sources you already have rights to. Stream detection, processing and the MP4 build itself all run locally.
