The complete decision guide
Buy Video Hosting for a Production Studio
Choose hosting by the files you publish, the people who review them and the work needed to leave.
Start here
Choose the right starting point
A hosting purchase combines playback, capacity, client experience and ownership. Start with a representative export and a short list of acceptance tests. The useful comparison is whether the whole handoff works, not how many features appear on a pricing card.
Run the same file and reviewer task through each candidate. Record actual file size, required playback devices and the original download result. Keep optional features out of the first decision unless a current client job needs them.
Ten minutes of video at three average bitrates
Decimal GB = average total Mbps × 600 seconds ÷ 8 ÷ 1,000. Container overhead excluded; use the real file size for planning. These are illustrative calculations, not measured customer results or plan limits.
Your evaluation
Turn the trial into a decision
Use the guides below to create an acceptance record for the work you do. Mark each requirement as essential, optional or outside the scope of the service. Test the essential items with your own files before moving an active client project.
Keep a written result for both a successful handoff and a failed one. If an important step needs another tool or a manual process, include that work in the comparison. Choose a paid plan when the verified workflow and current allowances fit your workload.

Where uncompressed.io fits
Use uncompressed.io when you want hosted playback of a compatible uploaded export without another platform re-encode, alongside client review. Check current storage pools and allowances on the pricing page. If you require learning assessments or unattended exhibition scheduling, evaluate those systems separately.

Make the next step concrete
Test it with one real project.
Check the client handoff, then choose the plan that matches the work you need to deliver.
