Transloadit Blog

Browsers usually render images from top to bottom as the image's data is downloaded. This is good enough most of the time, because the majority of your images may be pretty small in file size and/or the internet connection of your average user might be really fast. However, if this is not the case, because your user base heavily uses mobile devices or your image file sizes are quite big, then you will be happy about our newest feature - support for image interlacing!

We are happy to announce that we have launched yet another Robot!

We've noticed that Transloadit grows fast via word of mouth and obviously want to encourage that even more. So today, we're really happy to announce a bonus & referral system that rewards all those customers who are sharing the love. If you think Transloadit is great and you recommend it to your peers, you can greatly reduce your Transloadit bill.

We are thrilled to announce the release and immediate availability of the second robot this week - one that a lot of customers have requested over the past months and years - the /document/thumbs Robot!

We are happy to announce the immediate availability of our new /sftp/import robot. As the name implies it allows you to import files from your own server directly into Transloadit. There is a little bit of upfront installation work that you have to do to allow the Transloadit servers to SSH into your server. It's not very much, though, and in fact if you have used the /sftp/store robot before, then you are already good to go.

We are happy to announce that, from now on, we will create MD5 file hashes for all uploaded and imported files, as well as all encoding result files. This allows you to more easily check for files that have been uploaded to Transloadit already via your platform or check downloaded encoding results for integrity.

Our /image/resize Robot is now also able to blur your images! We have added a new blur parameter that takes a radius value and a sigma value to control how much blurring will be applied. Please check out the full documentation for further information.

I'd like to introduce you to several improvements to our site.

We are excited to announce a few updates that we have been working on over the past few weeks. These changes will hopefully serve to further stabilize the platform and make it even faster.

Today, We are happy to present to you the newest member of our robotic family: the /ftp/store Robot.
