Responsive Video

Just like image pipelines efficiently deliver optimized images for faster load times on a variety of devices and connections, video encoding services like Mux play a crucial role for optimizing video content. Video encoding demands more resources and expertise than image processing, so a dedicated service like Mux becomes essential for performant websites.

Why Mux?

While there is a host of services for video encoding to choose from, Mux offers all the key components: encoding, storage, and delivery. It stands out with its API-first approach prioritizing developer productivity, as well as its official web components for creating rich, customized video players.
