Outbound
Features

Everything you need to host, stream, and share media

Outbound replaces a stack of storage, encoder, CDN, player, and analytics tools with one usage-based platform — and an API to drive it all.

Resumable uploads to the edge

Drop in files up to 10 GB. Uploads go straight to storage, resume after a dropped connection, and never proxy through a server.

Direct-to-storage

Files upload straight to object storage with presigned URLs — fast, and your bytes never bottleneck on a server.

Resumable & parallel

Multipart uploads resume after a tab close or network drop, and chunks upload in parallel for full-speed transfers.

Video, audio & images

One pipeline for every media type, with automatic previews and metadata extraction on upload.

Adaptive HLS streaming

Every video is transcoded to multi-bitrate HLS so it plays smoothly on any connection, with a first-frame thumbnail generated automatically.

480p / 720p / 1080p

Automatic adaptive-bitrate encoding picks the best quality for each viewer's connection in real time.

Player included

A polished, themeable HLS player with a quality selector — or embed your own with the standard .m3u8 output.

Encoding on demand

Encoding is an optional add-on with a monthly quota. Skip it and videos still play from the original file.

Share pages & embeds

Every asset gets a public share page and an embeddable player that unfurls beautifully on social with Open Graph cards.

Instant share links

Publish an asset and get a clean, OG-rich share page for video, audio, or images — no setup.

Embeddable players

Drop a one-line iframe into any site or CMS. The player is responsive and inherits no tracking.

Social-ready unfurls

Twitter player cards and Open Graph metadata are generated for every asset so links look great everywhere.

Downloads & signed links

Hand off original files with expiring, signed download links — no accounts, no leaks, full control over access windows.

Expiring downloads

Mint signed links that expire from minutes to days. Recipients download the original, nobody needs an account.

Access on your terms

Draft vs published states control what is public. Originals stay private until you choose to share them.

Edge delivery

Files and segments are served from a global edge network — fast for every viewer, with zero egress fees.

A clean developer API

Automate everything: upload, encode, generate links, and manage sharing programmatically with API keys and a typed REST surface.

REST API + keys

Issue scoped API keys and drive uploads, downloads, and sharing from your own backend or scripts.

Rate-limited & safe

Per-key rate limits and clear, machine-readable errors make the API safe to put in production.

Webhooks & events

Built-in delivery analytics and an idempotent billing pipeline keep your usage and revenue in sync.

Delivery analytics

See views, downloads, streams, unique visitors, and where your audience is — by country, device, and referring domain.

Views & downloads

Track every view, stream, and download with a clean dashboard and a selectable time range.

Audience geography

Break delivery down by country, device, and referrer to learn where your media performs.

Built to scale

Analytics are powered by an edge-native pipeline that handles millions of events without slowing delivery.
