About

Gumlet is a developer-focused video infrastructure platform providing API-driven video hosting, transcoding, and delivery optimized for product teams building video features into web and mobile applications. When video is uploaded to Gumlet, the platform automatically transcodes it into multiple quality variants using per-title encoding — adjusting bitrate based on content complexity rather than applying fixed profiles — resulting in smaller file sizes and better quality at lower bandwidths compared to standard adaptive streaming approaches. Delivered via a global CDN with edge nodes in major markets, the result is fast, buffer-free playback across device types and network conditions.
