Our infrastructure can adapt to larger volumes of video content, making it ideal for scaling from small projects to enterprise-level usage.
With Kaltura, scalability often comes with added complexity and requires configuring various modules and components.
Straightforward pricing model
api.video has a clear pricing model. You pay only for what you use, with no hidden fees or long-term commitments. This transparent pricing structure is suitable for businesses of all sizes, allowing you to scale your costs in line with your storage and usage.
Kaltura offers custom pricing, which means you need to contact their sales team for a quote, making it difficult to know upfront what costs you'll incur.
Security of video content
api.video stands out with its robust encryption protocols and flexible authentication options.

With granular access controls and token-based authentication, you have complete authority over who views your content.
