A Private Video Enhancement API

Most video APIs treat your footage as a resource. We treat it as a liability to protect.

When you send video to a general-purpose media API, you are often agreeing — in the fine print — that your content may be used to "improve our services," retained on ambiguous timelines, or processed under terms written to preserve the provider's flexibility, not your confidentiality. For a consumer app that may be an acceptable trade. For a product handling client footage, claim evidence, internal recordings, or anything sensitive, it is a real risk you inherit on behalf of your own customers.

BetterVideo's API is built the opposite way. The privacy guarantees are the default on every plan, not an upgrade you have to find and switch on. We do exactly one thing with your video: enhance it and hand it back.

What "private" actually means here

• Never trained on. Our models are pre-trained with fixed weights. Your frames flow in, enhanced frames flow out — nothing flows back into the models. This is an architectural property, not just a policy line.
• Never sold or shared. No third parties, no data brokers, no "anonymized" resale. Your footage is yours.
• Auto-deleted. Files self-delete (default 30 days), and you can delete any job instantly with one call.
• Proof, not just promises. On the Secure tier, every deletion can return a signed deletion certificate, and an audit log records every action on your data.
• Isolated processing. Each job runs on its own; footage isn't pooled or browsed.

One call to enhance a video

Submit a video by URL, get a webhook (or poll) when it's done, then fetch a time-limited link to the result:

curl -X POST https://api.bettervideo.io/v1/jobs -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"video_url":"https://.../clip.mp4","resolution":"1080p"}'

That's the whole integration. No GPU farm to run, no ML to maintain — and no privacy trade-off to explain to your own customers.

Who builds on a private video API

Teams choose a privacy-first API when the footage flowing through their product belongs to someone who is trusting them with it: software for real-estate teams, tools that process claim or incident footage, platforms handling internal or investigative recordings, and any application where "where does our video actually go?" is a question a customer might ask. With BetterVideo, the answer is simple and verifiable.
