Video Compress API

Make a video file smaller. Pick a quality tier — light, balanced or strong — or give a target_size_mb and the API works out the bitrate for you. Measured on real 1080p-class footage: light returns about 17% of the original size, balanced 11%, strong 7%. Optionally downscale with max_height at the same time. H.264/AAC MP4 out; MP4 or MOV in, up to 120 seconds.

You can ask Video Compress to handle image generation/editing. Powered by Pixazo via the Pixazo API gateway.
