Video Platform as a Service

Video delivery, priced on what you use

Upload your video, we transcode and deliver adaptive HLS worldwide. Use it on its own like Mux or Vimeo, no site required, or as part of the full platform. Transparent, usage-based pricing.

How it works

Three calls to live video.

01

Upload

Send your file to a resumable upload URL, up to 100GB, with no server of your own.

02

We transcode

We encode to adaptive-bitrate HLS so playback fits every connection and device automatically.

03

Deliver

Get a ready-to-play HLS URL with tokenized, worldwide delivery. Embed it anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a full site to use the video API?
No. The video API works on its own. Upload your video, we transcode and deliver it, and you embed the stream wherever you want.
What formats do you deliver?
We transcode to adaptive-bitrate HLS so playback adjusts to each viewer's connection and device automatically.
How much does it cost?
Delivery is $0.02 per GB and storage is $10 per TB per month. There are no setup fees and no minimum.
How is this different from Mux or Vimeo?
Same idea, transparent pricing, and the option to grow into a full branded platform (tickets, pay-per-view, apps) whenever you want, without switching vendors.
