We are a Swiss Army knife for your files
Transloadit is a service for companies with developers. We handle their file uploads and media processing. This means that they can save on development time and the heavy machinery that is required to handle big volumes in an automated way.
We pioneered with this concept in 2009 and have made our customers happy ever since. We are still actively improving our service in 2019, as well as our open source projects uppy.io and tus.io, which are changing how the world does file uploading.
Take a screenshot of a website automatically (by using a URL)
Transloadit can take a screenshot of any website or HTML file. In this demo below we let the /html/convert Robot make a PNG screenshot from the Uppy website.
You could optionally use the /image/resize Robot to further resize or crop the resulting image as required.
1. Take screenshots of webpages
We can process your documents in an automated way, saving you costly resources. Learn more ›
2. Resize images to 1024×768
We can resize, crop, and (auto-)rotate images, as well as watermark them. Learn more ›
3. Export files to Amazon S3
We export to the storage platform of your choice. Learn more ›
Once all files have been exported, we can ping a URL of your choice with the Assembly status JSON.
Live Demo. See for yourself

So many ways to integrate
-
Bulk imports
Add one of our import Robots to acquire and transcode massive media libraries. -
Handling uploads
We are the experts at reliably handling uploads. We wrote the protocol for it. -
Front-end integration
We integrate with web browsers via our next-gen file uploader Uppy and SDKs for Android and iOS. -
Back-end integration
-
Pingbacks
Configure anotify_url
to let your server receive transcoding results JSON in thetransloadit
POST field.
