How it works
Three steps. No infrastructure.
Send a URL. We handle the rest: regional routing, retries, format negotiation, storage. Results land in your bucket or your webhook in seconds.
01SEND
Post a URL
One endpoint, any source. Paste a link from YouTube, TikTok or Instagram. Public, private or region-locked.

We handle the hard part
Geo-blocks, rate-limits, format changes, retries. Whatever the platform throws at us, your code never sees it. You get a clean MP4 or a clean error.

Why RenderIO
Built for teams who can't afford to babysit scrapers.
You came here because you tried building this yourself. Four reasons people stop running their own yt-dlp.
No geo-blocks. Anywhere.
Requests rotate across 18 residential regions automatically. A US-only video pulls from a US exit; a JP-only video from Tokyo. You never see a 403.
Scale like it's static.
1 request or 10,000 in parallel. Same API, same latency. No queues to provision, no Lambda timeouts to dodge, no proxy pool to bleed money on.
Rate-limit free.
The platforms ban scrapers. We don't get banned. We rotate, retry, and absorb the failures. Your code gets a 200 or a clean error. Nothing in between.
One API. All platforms.
Same endpoint. Same response shape. Same auth. Add a new platform and your code doesn't change. We track the upstream changes so you don't.
Use cases
What teams build with it.
The API shape is the same. What teams build downstream of it is not.
Tournament VOD library before expiry.
Tournament VODs are some of the most requested content on Twitch and some of the most likely to expire. Pull them into your archive the day they air. Your library stays complete even after Twitch purges them.
Streamers protecting their own content.
You spent 8 hours streaming. The VOD is up for 60 days. Pull your own broadcasts into permanent storage. Your content library does not depend on Twitch keeping it online.

Raw footage for your editing pipeline.
Pull the full VOD, run it through RenderIO's FFmpeg API to cut clips at specific timestamps, output your highlight reel. No manual downloads, no timeline scrubbing. All API.
For builders
Drop it into n8n. Hand it to an agent.
One quick technical detail. The Fetch API ships with first-class connectors so the engineers, the no-code people, and the AI agents all use the same backend and the same auth.
The official n8n node. Install once, fetch forever.
Drag the RenderIO node onto any canvas. Wire a webhook on the input, a Google Drive (or S3, or Slack) node on the output, and you have a UGC pipeline running in under five minutes.
- Fetch by URL, by playlist, by handle
- Pre-built templates for TikTok monitoring, IG reels archive, YouTube channel sync
- Webhook trigger for new-video alerts
- Native binary output. No base64 gymnastics

FAQ
Things people ask before they sign up.
Is this legal?
RenderIO runs yt-dlp in the cloud and fetches publicly accessible Twitch content. For subscriber-only VODs, you supply your own OAuth token — we do not bypass subscription requirements. What you download and what you do with it is your responsibility.
How long are Twitch VODs available?
Non-Partner channels: 60 days. Affiliate channels: 60 days. Partners: indefinite. Clips: no fixed expiry but not guaranteed permanent. Fetch and store early.
Can I download live streams?
Live stream capture is not supported right now. We support completed VODs, past broadcasts, and clips. Live recording is on the roadmap.
How do I access sub-only VODs?
Include "oauth_token": "your_twitch_oauth_token" in the request body. We use it to authenticate the fetch and do not store it after the request completes.
What quality do I get?
We always fetch the highest quality available. Most Twitch VODs are available at 1080p60 or 1080p30 depending on the broadcaster's settings. 480p fallback for older content.
