Cloudglue

Cloudglue is a developer-first API platform for teams building AI applications that need to turn video and audio into structured, LLM-ready data.

Key capabilities include:

• Multimodal extraction from video, including speech transcription, speaker diarization, visual descriptions, and sound analysis, designed for RAG, analytics, and conversational interfaces.
• Fast indexing and segmentation, using automatic shot detection and narrative-based segmentation, with reported performance of converting ~50 minutes of video into LLM-ready data in ~3 minutes.
• Flexible integration options, from a managed video Q&A workflow (single API call) to granular segment-by-segment control for teams that manage embeddings and retrieval independently.
• Ecosystem support, including an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Claude and other AI assistants, plus entity extraction and batch retrieval.

Pricing: Freemium, with a free plan (200 credits). Paid plans include Mini ($15/month), Starter ($45/month), Builder ($350/month), and Scale ($600/month).

Notable for providing video understanding infrastructure that ingests common sources (HTTP URLs, Dropbox, Google Drive, Zoom, YouTube for narrative segmentation) and is Y Combinator-backed (founded by Amy Xiao), with a focus on production-ready performance for enterprise use cases.
