The Aclipsa Service

Easily Add Video Content and Messaging to Your Current and Future Mobile Apps

Our service makes it easy to create video content apps, particularly those with compliance requirements, as well as text and video messaging apps.

Overview

Video Content

First upload a video from a mobile device or via a web browser. We transcode it into into multiple HLS streams to create the perfect balance between video quality and a mobile device's current network connection quality.

Then simply indicate which users can watch the video. It's streamed to them from our content delivery network, ensuring that load times are as quick as possible.

We track how much of a given video each user has watched and provide a playback resume position.

Messaging

Send a message from one user to another by specifying the sender's user ID, the IDs of the recipient(s), message text, and optionally a video.

Retrieve a list of messages, group them into conversations, and show them to the user.

SDK Features

We provide SDKs for iOS 7.0+ and Android 4.0+, making it easy to access every feature of our system. With a few simple calls you can:

Videos

• Upload videos from a mobile device. Add any custom attributes you'd like.
• Request a list of videos with specific built-in and custom attributes.
• Stream a video with full OS-native video player controls.
• See the percentage watched by a particular user.

Messages

• Everything above.
• Create a new message with sender and recipient(s). Include message text and/or a video.
• Request a list of messages for a particular user, sent and received. Filter with your custom attributes.
• Determine which recipients have viewed a message and which have taken a screenshot of a video.
• Forward, reply to, delete, or retract a message.

Security

All communication between devices and the server is always secured with 128-bit AES SSL.

All data on our servers is protected with 256-bit AES encryption.

You can optionally add encryption to a video to ensure that it isn't stored or shared.
