All videos at api.video are converted to adaptive bitrate streams. Adaptive video streams adapt the quality of video delivered based on the device and connection speed of the viewer and results in significantly faster startup times and eliminates most playback issues, like buffering.

To ensure rapid and seamless delivery, videos can be stored in multiple locations around the world. Additionally, our custom CDN puts your videos even closer to your viewers, caching it at the edge of the internet, everywhere around the world.

Location, location, location. For live streams in particular, the closer the streamer is to the server, the lower the latency and the more stable the stream. Our Edge infrastructure is optimized to prevents bandwidth issues and reduce latency, resulting in a better viewing experience.

Make it easier to spread the word! All videos on our platform support the oEmbed standard, which means URLs to your videos will automatically expand and embed on all major social networks and hundreds of other CMSs and tools like Medium, Slack, and WordPress.
