Retry-safe job creation
Use Idempotency-Key headers on single jobs, bulk jobs, and on-demand ingestion so queue restarts do not duplicate paid work.
API integrations
Video Encoding API Integrations
Integrate GPU video encoding with API keys, the TypeScript SDK, idempotency keys, signed webhooks, S3-compatible storage, and Google Drive service accounts.
Convertrilo is built for products that already own uploads, permissions, storage, and customer records, but need a cheaper API worker for compression, format normalization, and up to 8K/120fps production encoding.
Storage you control
Send URL, S3-compatible, or Google Drive sources and write outputs to Convertrilo CDN, customer S3, or Google Drive folders.
Webhooks with history
Receive signed job lifecycle events, inspect delivery attempts, and retry scheduled webhook deliveries when downstream systems recover.
Operational API surface
Build against scoped API keys, stable machine-readable error codes, endpoint rate-limit docs, external ids, and job metadata.
Release confidence
Smoke-tested against real infrastructure
The release smoke matrix exercises actual API keys, storage destinations, workers, Google Drive credentials, and webhook delivery history. It is the checklist for integration changes that need proof, not just type checks.

- URL source to customer S3-compatible output
- S3 folder ingest to S3-compatible output
- URL source to Google Drive output with a saved service account

Developer guides
SDK quickstartInstall the Convertrilo TypeScript SDK, create an API key, submit a retry-safe encoding job, and wait for a completed output.Queue automationConnect Convertrilo to your own queues, cron jobs, imports, and backfills without duplicating jobs when retries happen.Webhook receiverReceive signed Convertrilo job events, verify the HMAC signature, and update your own product when outputs are ready.S3 output workflowsRoute completed video encodes to S3-compatible buckets so your product keeps ownership of storage, CDN, lifecycle rules, and access control.MCP setupInstall @convertrilo/sdk, save an API key with the CLI, configure convertrilo-mcp in an MCP client, and verify the available video encoding tools.Agent workflowsDesign agent-friendly video encoding workflows with the Convertrilo MCP server, scoped API keys, deterministic job payloads, idempotency, polling, and signed webhooks.
Automation pages
Video encoding APICreate video encoding jobs from your backend with API keys, idempotency, metadata, priority queues, webhooks, and storage destinations you control.Video encoding CLIAutomate video compression from terminals, deployment jobs, content pipelines, and scheduled scripts with a Convertrilo CLI workflow.Video encoding MCPConnect Convertrilo to MCP clients so agents can create encoding jobs, check status, wait for completion, cancel work, and inspect token balance.Video encoding webhooksReceive signed job.completed, job.failed, and job.canceled events so your app can publish assets, update records, and notify customers automatically.Automated S3 video compressionCompress videos from S3-compatible storage and write finished MP4 outputs back to your own bucket with API keys, idempotency, and worker execution reports.Agent video workflow automationGive MCP-capable agents a narrow video encoding tool surface for creating jobs, waiting for completion, inspecting reports, and handing outputs back to your workflow.Folder ingest automationQueue one encode job per video discovered in S3-compatible or Google Drive folders, with caps, metadata, output destinations, and webhook reconciliation.
Use-case guides
SaaS platformsAdd cheap batch video compression to SaaS apps that accept customer uploads, profile videos, course files, media libraries, or support attachments.AgenciesCompress client video libraries, campaign assets, and social deliverables in bulk without running local encoding machines.LMS platformsEncode lecture videos, course uploads, and lesson libraries into smaller files that stream reliably for students.Media asset toolsAdd background video compression to DAMs, creative libraries, and media asset tools without building an encoder farm.
