About
Rendi is an FFmpeg API that runs FFmpeg jobs in the cloud through a REST API. Developers submit standard FFmpeg commands, then poll for results or use webhooks after processing completes. The service also provides stored outputs with stable URLs and documentation for MCP-compatible coding assistants.
The free plan includes 4 vCPUs, 50 GB of monthly processing, up to 1 minute command run time, 5 GB-month storage, and 4 commands per minute. It is aimed at developers building video automation workflows that need hosted FFmpeg without installing binaries or managing servers.
- 4 vCPUs on the free plan
- 50 GB monthly processing allowance
- 1 minute maximum command runtime
- 5 GB-month storage included
- 4 commands per minute limit
- REST API for FFmpeg commands
- Webhook and polling workflow support
- MCP server for coding assistants
Free Tier Value
This free tier is a genuinely usable monthly allowance rather than a short trial: it includes 4 vCPUs, 50 GB of processing, 1 minute runs, 5 GB-month storage, and a small command-rate cap. Compared with the $25 Pro plan, it looks like roughly half the practical capacity on the core limits, so about $12/month is a fair buyer-facing value; a credit card is required, which adds some friction and keeps the score below a fully frictionless free plan.
