API-key access
Generate account-scoped keys, exchange them for short-lived tokens, and keep secrets outside browser code.
Developer platform
A media pipeline your product can call directly.
Authenticate with an API key, submit a media job, and receive signed events when the optimized file is ready.
Quick start
From key to compressed result.
The API follows the same job model as the customer workspace: authenticate, submit, observe, and deliver.

Everything required for a production integration.
The developer experience includes access control, job lifecycle endpoints, quota tracking, and event delivery.
Asynchronous jobs
Submit uploads, receive a job ID, inspect status, and download the result when processing completes.
Signed webhooks
Register endpoints for job, upload, and quota events with HMAC signatures and rotatable secrets.
Usage visibility
Track request totals, remaining quota, plan limits, and recent processing activity from the dashboard.
job.completed
signed{
"type": "job.completed",
"data": {
"jobId": "job_84x",
"status": "done",
"downloadUrl": "https://..."
}
}Event delivery
Stop polling when the job is finished.
Subscribe to completion and failure events, verify each signature, and trigger the next step in your workflow immediately.
HMAC-signed payloads
Job, upload, and quota events
Test delivery and rotate secrets
Ready when you are
Build against the same pipeline that powers the workspace.
