What Gumlet is

Gumlet is media infrastructure rather than a creative tool. It hosts video, streams it, optimizes and compresses images, distributes through a CDN, and adds DRM and access control, with an API for integration.

It is grouped with video tools because it handles video delivery, but it does not generate video from text.

What you can do with it

Host and stream video with a player
Optimize, convert and compress images
Deliver media through a CDN
Protect content with DRM and access control
Automate processing through the API

Who it is for

Online education platforms
E-commerce and content sites
SaaS products with heavy media
Teams delivering media globally

What to watch out for

It is not a video generation tool; AI is used for compression and processing
Full media infrastructure is heavy for occasional small uploads
Evaluate traffic, image request volume and cost before connecting
Migration cost rises once media infrastructure sits inside a core product
