How this service works

Convert any video to a clean, web-ready MP4. Provide a source URL or upload the file directly; the paid request returns a status URL to poll, and the finished MP4 (plus a thumbnail) is downloadable for 24 hours. Fixed price per conversion in USDC over x402; no account or API key. Failures on our side automatically mint a free retry voucher. Input up to 100 MB.

Output

A 202 response with a status URL to poll for conversion progress; once complete, a downloadable MP4 and thumbnail are available for 24 hours. If the conversion fails on the provider's side, a free retry voucher is issued automatically.

Example use cases

Convert user-uploaded video for web

“I just uploaded a raw MOV file from our content team — can you convert it to a web-ready MP4 at 1920 by 1080 max? Use the upload mode and give me the download link when it's done.”

Transcode video from cloud storage URL

“Take this video at https://mybucket.s3.amazonaws.com/promo.mp4?token=xyz and convert it to a clean MP4, keeping the width under 1280 pixels and height under 720 pixels.”

Automated pipeline video normalization

“Every time a new video lands in our pipeline, convert it to a standard web MP4 at up to 1920 by 1080 — no API key, just charge $0.05 USDC per file and give me a status URL to poll.”

When to prefer

Choose this endpoint when you need a simple, pay-per-use video-to-MP4 conversion with no account setup or API key, especially in automated agent pipelines where fixed USDC pricing and built-in retry vouchers on failure matter. Ideal for one-off or sporadic conversions of files up to 100 MB from a URL or direct upload.

Side effects

sourceUrl is not https or resolves to a localhost/internal address — rejected before charge
source video exceeds 100 MiB — ingest rejected
host blocks datacenter egress IPs — fails with ingest_failed error
upload window expires before bytes are transferred — terminal error with no refund
unsupported input video format or corrupted file — pipeline failure with retry voucher issued
maxWidth or maxHeight values outside 1–4096 range — request rejected

Input

Schema · Request body

Field	Type	Description
upload	boolean	Push intake: instead of a `sourceUrl`, reserve an upload window and PUT the raw bytes (<= 100 MiB, same cap) to the `uploadUrl` in the 202 before `uploadExpiresAt`. You are charged at the 202, before any bytes move: letting the window expire is a terminal `error` with no refund; a pipeline failure after your upload earns a `retryVoucher`.
maxWidth	integer	Max output width. Must be a positive integer (JSON number, not a string).
maxHeight	integer	Max output height.
sourceUrl	string	https URL we fetch the input from. Rejected before any charge if it is not https, is an IP literal, or resolves to a localhost/.internal/.local name; redirects are followed (max 3) and every hop is re-checked. We fetch from datacenter IP ranges - hosts that block datacenter egress will fail with `ingest_failed`, so prefer a presigned URL from storage you control. Body size cap: 100 MiB by default, enforced while streaming.
