👋 Hey there PH community! Thanks @benln for hunting us! 🙌 We're super excited to launch the Progressive Upload API & Clients today: a radically new way to let your app's users simultaneously create and upload their videos, making their content available in seconds, just after they end their recording! ❓ The problem As a product builder, most of your users are unaware of what it takes to make their videos ready to play in seconds, not minutes. And if it doesn't load in 1 second, they complain, or worse, churn. So, you have to offer the best possible workflow and playback experience to keep them happy. ✅ Our solution While we can't make end-users more patient, Progressive Upload can make videos available for playback 88% faster :) There is no need to create a video locally, upload it, and then wait for transcoding before getting a link to share. Your users press record, and once they finish recording, their video is available almost immediately worldwide! ⚡ 🛠️ What you can build with it - In a social app: empower your users to engage by letting them record videos with one click. - In a messaging or e-learning app: offer your users the seamless experience of recording their screen and camera to share ideas. - In a video-conference solution: push the session to api.video to get a high-quality video recording available right after the meeting. - With IoT and ground cameras: get recordings of what they see in seconds. ✌️ Write a few lines of code with the help of our API Clients without needing expertise in video/media transcoding, hosting, or streaming. ❤️ We have to thank our developer community for inspiring this product idea! We can't wait to see what you will build with api.video 🙌🏼 Check out the tutorial or directly try it for yourself! https://upstream.a.video/

@cedric_io Congrats on the launch! Happy to see you here

@syswarren 🙃.... ✌️!

Neva Ballet is a dance & fitness online platform launched by Valentina Zatevalneva in 2020. We are using api.video to allow our students, who cannot attend the live sessions, to review the classes in HD at any time. As a beta tester of the new progressive upload feature, I can say that it allowed us to improve the overall experience for our users significantly! It was super important for our students, unable to join the Zoom sessions or those wanting to review the course after it ends, to (re)watch it. Now, the replay is available in just a few seconds after the course ends - that's a real and meaningful differentiator for us ! Go api.video !!

Thanks @didier_neva! 😊

So excited to see this feature finally out! 🙏 This also solves a long-time issue with uploads of large video files to the internet. 📼
