You'll need to manage and maintain servers and containers, CPU and memory utilization, queues, auto-scaling, concurrency, storage, codecs, and video editing software. And that's before building a UI and getting creative with video editing and motion graphics.
Developing your own video editing API isn't as simple as launching a server and installing an FFmpeg library. What happens when hundreds of users want to create videos at the same time, or you need to resolve obscure bugs and errors.
Building your own infrastructure requires experienced engineers, years of development and ongoing maintenance and optimisation.
Other solutions might provide you with the software you need but you need to manage your own infrastructure, or they provide the infrastructure, but you are limited by their inflexible constraints.
Render thousands of videos at the same time. Our video editing API will automatically scale to render thousands of videos.
We've worked out the bottlenecks, making sure your videos will be ready in seconds instead of minutes.
Our video editing API uses industry standard RESTful architecture and easy to understand JSON templates that follow well established video editing principles.
Achieving the desired outcome would have required extensive research and at least two to six months of engineering time.
Create powerful video workflows and applications using AI and programmatic video editing tools.
