Side project - 10x Cheaper Cloud Video Encoding
Hey Hackers!
I just found out about this community on Product Hunt - what a great idea.
We've just launched a side project of ours called Encoder Farm (https://encoderfarm.com) - the cloud video encoding service we've always wanted to build but never had the time between "paid gigs".
Encoder Farm really is built for startups first and foremost. In my 15 years experience, using traditional pay-per-minute or pay-per-GB cloud encoding services such as AWS or Zencoder will absolutely crush your budget... especially if you're running it as a side project!
If you're running a startup, or are thinking about starting a side project that deals with online video then I'd love to know what you think of https://encoderfarm.com. You can try it out without any credit card required.
Cheers,
Liam
awesome!!!
Thanks ferruccio!
Hiya!
The 'Getting Started' link appears broken - doesn't load for me.
Bug in Chrome if that link was clicked when the page was scrolled. Fixed. Thanks for the heads up - much appreciated.
Looks interesting. Just a heads up that the Pricing and Features links in the top nav are not working for me.
Would love to see info about encoding, such as what multi-bitrate HLS encoding and streaming is.
Thanks for taking a look Tom. Scrolling to Pricing and Features in the nav now works again for Chrome. Good advice on the encoding FAQ... we can't assume all startup developers know about all encoding formats.
