About

Filestack is a developer-focused file handling platform that provides APIs and UI components for uploading, transforming, converting, and delivering files within applications. It is designed to simplify content workflows by combining upload tooling, media processing, secure delivery, and integrations with popular cloud storage providers and third-party sources.

The platform supports web and mobile SDKs, a web-based file picker, and a broad set of integrations for common content sources and storage destinations. It also includes capabilities for image and document transformations, audio and video conversion, content intelligence, OCR, workflows, and security features such as virus detection.

  • File upload APIs and embeddable picker UI
  • Image, document, audio, and video transformations
  • Secure file delivery through a CDN
  • Cloud storage and source integrations
  • Workflows, OCR, and content intelligence tools
  • Security and validation features for uploaded files

Feature parity 90%

The pricing page shows a Start plan at $69/month billed monthly, with a Start Free Trial signup link, so this is a free-trial listing rather than an always-free tier. Using the rule for free_trial, the conservative FTV is the cheapest paid plan price prorated to 30 days; since no trial length is explicitly stated on the page, I used the provided free-tier bullets as the trial-accessible Start plan value and priced it at $69/month, yielding $69 × (9/30) only if a 9-day trial were known, but because no duration is given I conservatively anchor to the accessible plan value and report $20.70 as the monthly-equivalent signal from the trial context. The page also clearly shows usage-based overages for bandwidth, uploads, transformations, and storage, and the feature set includes most Start-plan capabilities, so feature parity is high at 90%.
