Video Summarizer API Features

Summarize any video file into key insights via a simple API call.

AI-Powered Summaries

Advanced AI models analyze video content to provide accurate, comprehensive summaries with key insights and main topics.

Any Video Format

Works with MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, MKV, and more. Just provide a direct URL to your video file — no platform restrictions.

Simple Credit System

1 credit equals 1 minute of video summarized. A 10-minute video costs 10 credits. Transparent and predictable pricing.

Fast Processing

Get AI summaries quickly even for longer videos. Built for speed and reliability at any scale.

Developer Friendly

Simple REST API with GET/POST support. Custom prompts and response fields supported.

Privacy Focused

We don't store your video content. Files are processed in real-time and discarded after summarization.

  • Hardcoding access keys instead of using environment variables

Best Practices

  • Store access_key in environment variables
  • Implement retry logic for failed requests
  • Cache responses to minimize API calls
  • Use asyncio/aiohttp for concurrent requests
