Video encoding and streaming
Stream beautifully, everywhere
Empower your content team with the ability to produce beautiful videos and serve them fast to any device.
Adaptive bitrate means fast on every device
Thanks to HLS Adaptive Bitrate (ABR) streaming, every viewer will always download the right video size for their device and connection speed.
Any video format, instantly streamable
We can ingest almost every available codec — including those for broadcast and professional applications like H.264, H.265, VP9, and Apple ProRes — and make videos instantly available for streaming.
Thumbnails? Included.
Thumbnails are entry level when it comes to video, yet implementing them is far from simple. With a single request through our API you can get a thumbnail or an entire storyboard to use in your player to scrub preview images.

Works with any video player
Rather than require you to use a proprietary player, we made it easy to integrate with all major web and mobile video players, open-source or professional, web or native.
