Hello everyone,

I'm at it again, my newest new business is an Online Video Platform for SMBs and independent videographers. It allows uploading, encoding, client review and acceptance, embed codes, and streaming from a worldwide delivery network. It serves some of the same needs as YouTube, but its more secure, customizable, with more encoding options. It's also unbranded for a more professional look than Youtube.

I would love any comments on the site before our official launch on Jan, 1.

If it allows user optimization of bitrate it's cool.  If not, I wouldn't use it.

As a videographer, I think the pricing is a tad too high for my needs, but on the other hand, if I have more control over the encoding and embedding, then I may use it.

But you asked for a website critique, and we all too often get into the business model here.

I like the design.  It looks good and professional on my browser, loads fast and is easy to follow the "path" you want to take me through as a viewer.

Your :26 demo video doesn't have any hang time on the final screen - I had to play it a couple of times to read it.  I would also like to see a sample f the watermark on the free account player.

It actually compresses the video into 3 or 4 formats each with a different target bitrate. Then it uses automatic bandwidth detection to stream the correct video based on the users connection.
