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.
Write meta data to an image
Writing meta data to files is easy with the /meta/write Robot. You just need to supply the data_to_write
parameter and set the keys and values that you want to write to the file. Please upload a file below. Once the encoding completes, see how the copyright notice is now part of the extracted metadata of the result file.
1. Handle uploads
We can handle uploads of your users directly. Learn more ›
2. Write metadata to media
We can enrich media files with meta data and generate playlists for them. Learn more ›
3. Export files to Amazon S3
We export to the storage platform of your choice. Learn more ›
Once files are exported, we ping you back with the Assembly status JSON.

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.
