Optimize Your Video Spend

How Videomancer Works

Videomancer is the video encoding brain. It sits on top of the encoder you already run and, for every video, finds the cheapest way to encode it without dropping below the quality your viewers expect. It's what big companies like YouTube and Netflix are already doing, now available for the rest of us!

Step 1

Connect Your Pipeline

We sit on top of the encoder you already use, e.g. ffmpeg or your own code. No big migration is needed, just a few extra lines of code.

Step 2

Analyze The Video

Optimal video encoding is not one-size-fits-all. Videomancer analyzes each video to figure out the best encoding plan.

Step 3

Set Your Quality Floor

You pick the perceptual quality bar, measured with metrics like VMAF. Videomancer treats that as a minimum to preserve quality.

Step 4

Build the Encoding PLan

Videomancer plans encoding settings, predicting the cost-versus-quality tradeoff, to pick the cheapest option that still clears your floor, per video.

Step 5

Encode & Save

Apply the brain's plan inside your own pipeline and keep the savings. Every decision is loggable and auditable by your team.

15 – 40%

Expected savings across encoding and delivery, with no perceptible drop in quality.
