What FFmpeg features are supported?

All of them. Any command that runs in FFmpeg 7.x works. Transcoding, filtering, muxing, demuxing, complex filter chains, audio extraction, thumbnail generation. If FFmpeg supports it, our API runs it.

Does it work with n8n and Zapier?

Yes. Native FFmpeg + n8n node and native Zapier integration. Also works with Make and Pipedream. n8n cloud doesn't have FFmpeg installed, so RenderIO is the external processing API your automation workflow needs.

Can I resize videos for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts?

Absolutely. Send an FFmpeg command to scale to 1080x1920 for TikTok, crop for Instagram Reels, or trim to 60s for YouTube Shorts. Any FFmpeg resize, crop, or pad command works.

Can I batch process videos to make unique variations?

Yes. Submit multiple commands in parallel. Add different watermarks, change metadata, adjust colors, overlay text. Build a full video automation pipeline to create unique variations at scale for multiple accounts or platforms.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every new account starts with a 7-day free trial on the Starter plan with 500 commands/month and full API access. You won't be charged until the trial ends. Cancel anytime.

What's the max file size?

500MB per file on Starter and Growth plans, up to 5GB per file on Pro and Business plans. If you need larger files, contact us and we can work something out.

The Problem

Scaling video processing shouldn't be this painful

You're generating 50 AI videos a day. Each one needs to be resized for TikTok, made unique for multiple accounts, reformatted for Reels. n8n cloud doesn't have FFmpeg installed. Lambda times out. The manual process breaks at 10 videos. You need a video automation API that handles 500.

Can't scale manually

One video, five platforms, three aspect ratios, unique variations per account. The manual approach breaks at volume. Your AI generates content faster than you can process it.

Infrastructure tax

Self-hosting FFmpeg means servers, queues, storage, and 3am failures. Lambda times out at 15 minutes. n8n cloud has no FFmpeg. You're stitching together five services for one job.

Platform format chaos

TikTok wants 9:16 at 1080x1920. YouTube Shorts caps at 60s. Instagram Reels needs different encoding. Every platform has rules, and they keep changing.

The Fix

One API. Full FFmpeg. Any scale.

Send any FFmpeg command to RenderIO's FFmpeg Online API. We process it, store results with zero egress fees, and notify you via webhook. Resize, convert, watermark, or build full video automation pipelines — one video or ten thousand. Native n8n integration. Native Zapier integration. Plus Make and Pipedream. REST API for everything else.
