Mux
Video infrastructure API with Mux Robots AI workflows for video understanding.
About
Mux is the video infrastructure platform giving developers an end-to-end API for ingesting, encoding, storing, delivering, and analyzing video, spanning Mux Video for on-demand and live streaming, Mux Data for quality-of-experience analytics, and the Mux Player.
Mux Robots is its asynchronous job API for running AI workflows against video assets: asking questions of a video, editing captions, finding key moments, generating chapters, moderating for NSFW and violence, summarizing, and translating captions. Auto-generated captions use OpenAI's Whisper and are free in 22 languages, and the @mux/ai SDK lets developers build their own AI video pipelines, from chapter generation to LLM-driven moderation and metadata creation.
What it can do
- Mux Robots AI workflows: captions, chapters, summaries, moderation, Q&A
- Whisper-powered auto-generated captions in 22 languages
- @mux/ai SDK for custom AI video pipelines
