Most video recording APIs charge you per minute, per egress, per transcode — then you still need separate vendors for transcription and storage. VIDTREO bundles everything into one SDK at $0.01/min: recording, transcoding, AI transcription & summaries, and cloud storage. No egress fees. No monthly minimums. 10 lines of code to integrate. React, vanilla JS, or Web Components. 62% cheaper than Ziggeo, 90% cheaper than Addpipe. Free tier included.
Hey Product Hunt —
I'm Cris, founder of VIDTREO. I built this because I spent years watching companies overpay for video recording infrastructure. Monthly subscriptions you can't escape. Storage fees that grow silently. Egress charges buried in the fine print.
We asked a simple question: what if video recording cost $0.01 per minute and nothing else?
So we built it. From scratch.
We designed our own edge computing architecture — Vidtreo Edge — that handles transcoding, storage, and global delivery as a single integrated system. This lets us operate at a fraction of the cost of legacy providers and pass every dollar of savings to you.
What we're shipping today:
• $0.01/min — no subscriptions, no hidden fees
• React, Web Component, and Vanilla JS SDKs
• Beautiful recorder UI, under 40 KB
• Vidtreo Edge delivery worldwide, zero egress fees
• $1 free credit to start — no credit card
We're live and production-ready. If you're building anything that needs video recording — telehealth, education, hiring, customer feedback, async communication — I'd love for you to try it.
What would make you switch from your current video recording provider? Genuinely curious.

@christian_segovia The $0.01/min flat pricing with no egress fees is a bold move - that alone would get my attention if I were evaluating video providers right now. The hidden cost problem you're describing is real, especially for smaller teams that don't realize how fast storage and egress add up until the invoice hits.
Quick question: do you handle the recording client-side or server-side? And is there a max recording length or resolution cap at that price point, or is it truly flat regardless?
@diegodau Great question — and exactly the kind of thing that makes or breaks a pricing decision.
Recording and transcoding happen entirely client-side. Our SDK encodes video directly in the browser — by the time the file reaches our servers, it's already a ready-to-play MP4. No server-side transcoding needed. That's the core reason we can price at $0.01/min with healthy margins while others charge 3-5x more.
On resolution: $0.01/min covers SD to HD. We support up to 4K — the only service at this price range that does. Higher resolutions are available at adjusted per-minute rates, but we're not hiding a 10x multiplier behind a "contact sales" button.
Max recording length: no hard cap. We've tested multi-hour recordings in production. The SDK handles chunked uploads with IndexedDB persistence, so even if the connection drops mid-recording, it picks up where it left off.
The flat pricing is real — no egress, no storage fees, no monthly minimums. We run on edge infrastructure with zero-egress storage, so the cost structure actually supports it. It's not a loss leader — it's architecture.
Happy to go deeper on any part of the stack.
This is a great solution. We integrated it into our platform, Evaluar.com, and ended up saving at least $2K/month on video intake and recording costs. It’s fast, reliable, and very reasonably priced.
I’m also planning to implement Vidtreo in my latest product, ioZen.ai, to support video-based questions.
Keep up the great work!
@jaymoreno — this genuinely made our day. Hearing that Evaluar.com saved $2K/month is exactly the kind of impact we set out to build.
Video intake for hiring and assessments is one of the use cases we care most about, and knowing it's working well in production at that scale means a lot to a small team like ours.
Really excited to hear about ioZen.ai too — video-based questions is a perfect fit. And since we know you're building with AI too, we've got you covered: our docs at https://docs.vidtreo.com/ are fully structured and ready for AI agents to pick up and implement. Just point your coding assistant at the docs and it can handle the integration end to end.
Thank you for the trust and for sharing your experience publicly — it means the world.
