Ittybit gives developers a plug-and-play media backend that replaces patchwork tools with a single unified API. Developers use ittybit's media APIs to store, transform, and get intelligence from media files. Start with a few lines of code and scale to millions of uploads when you're ready.
We created ittybit to erase the cost and complexity of custom media stacks so you can ship features faster. Built for product teams that move fast—start-ups, SaaS platforms, and any app serving thousands (or millions) of media files.
Features:
• Hosting: secure uploads, durable storage, global CDN delivery
• AI Intelligence: detect objects, auto-transcribe audio, flag NSFW content
• Sources: convert to modern formats, compress up to 90 %, resize & crop on the fly
• Tracks: generate thumbnails, subtitles, and chapter markers for better UX & SEO
• Automations: trigger parallel or conditional workflows on every new upload
Ittybit’s architecture scales horizontally across regions, and its transparent dashboard shows real-time usage for each dimension—storage, bandwidth, and processing. The API follows REST conventions with language SDKs for TypeScript, Python, and Go, and integrates with CI/CD flows via CLI tooling. Security features include role-based keys, signed URLs, and regional data residency options. A perpetual free tier supports small projects, while paid plans introduce custom domains, advanced access rules, and enterprise governance features such as SSO and audit logs.
Typical use cases include replacing complex managed or self-hosted pipelines, adding on-demand video to a web application, generating searchable metadata for large image/video libraries, or automating audio transcription for podcasts. Because billing is metered per gigabyte for storage, delivery, and processing, costs remain predictable even when traffic spikes.
