What developers appreciate about IgniteEfficient workflows, clean APIs, and less complexity – ready to use out of the box.
Integration that fits your stack
Whether via iframe, API, or your own player – Ignite plugs into almost any setup. Works great with traditional CMS, headless architectures, or custom frontends.
Control via a clean REST API
Uploads, metadata, embed links, captions, or transcription – everything is fully controllable through a straightforward REST API. Lightweight, predictable, and easy to integrate into existing systems.
JavaScript control for the player
Autoplay, start time, captions, mute – the Ignite player can be fully controlled via JavaScript. You stay in control – or swap in your player if you prefer.
oEmbed, embedly and iframly support included
Ignite supports the oEmbed + embedly + iframly so you can embed videos by simply pasting the URL – for example in WordPress or other CMS platforms that support one of those. No embed code needed.
Documentation that doesn’t get in the way
The developer docs cover every endpoint, with example calls, parameters, and real-world use cases. No fluff – just a resource you’ll actually want to use.
Built-in pipeline for encoding & delivery
Once uploaded, Ignite handles the entire process: transcoding into multiple resolutions, generating thumbnails, and preparing videos for adaptive streaming. The pipeline runs entirely in the background – no manual steps or extra tools required.
No infrastructure overhead
Ignite takes care of hosting, encoding, TLS, and CDN delivery. No custom infrastructure, no special configurations needed.
Automatically scales – no config needed
Whether it's 10 views or a million, Ignite delivers high performance at any scale. No setup, no tuning – it just works.
First-party hosting supported
If you need full control, you can serve Ignite videos through your own subdomain. It keeps your setup technically clean and makes everything feel like a seamless part of your infrastructure.
No legal headaches
Ignite runs entirely without tracking cookies or third-party scripts. You can embed videos directly – no consent banners, no extra opt-ins. That keeps implementation simple and avoids long back-and-forths with legal teams. Of course, data processing agreements (DPA) are available too.
Flexible trial periods for your projects
Agencies and complex setups don’t always fit into a 14-day window. That’s why we offer extended trial periods on request – sometimes right up to go-live. This gives you the time to integrate, test, and work with Ignite in a real project environment.
Create an account, upload a video, start using the API – everything’s ready to go.
We’re ready when you are. No sales call, no waiting, no artificial barriers. Start testing right away, embed your first videos, and try the API in a real setup. When it works for you, pick the right plan in the next step.
