For Developers & Platforms

Build on an open ecosystem

Create plugins, integrate into your platform, extend the format. A plugin marketplace where your tools reach millions.

  • → Build once, distribute everywhere
  • → Plugin SDK with full creative control
  • → Integrate MP4E into your existing player
  • → No revenue share on your plugins
  • → Early access to the developer program

A complete interactive runtime

Everything a video needs to become software. Embedded in the file.

  • ✓ Frame-by-frame precision tracking
  • ✓ Make any detected object clickable
  • ✓ Analytics on hover, click, view time per object
