What you can do with FileSpin​

Upload & Manage Assets​

Ingest files via direct upload, URI, or our drop-in File Picker Widget — then organize them with custom metadata schemas, collections, and powerful full-text search.

Transform Images On-the-fly​

Resize, crop, watermark, rotate, change format, adjust quality, and apply effects — all through URL parameters with instant CDN delivery. No pre-processing needed.

Transcode & Stream Video​

Automatically transcode videos into multiple resolutions, generate HLS adaptive streams, create storyboards, and clip segments — ready to embed anywhere.

AI-Powered Addons​

Tap into built-in AI capabilities: auto-tagging, face recognition & search, background removal, image collage, and more — all triggered via a single API call.

Webhooks & Integrations​

Get notified in real-time when assets are uploaded, processed, or updated with webhook callbacks. Export data and integrate with your existing stack.

Flexible Authentication​

Choose between JWT tokens, OAuth2, or API keys — with role-based access control, user groups, and fine-grained permissions to match your security model.
