One endpoint. Six things you'd otherwise build yourself.

Smart crop

Saliency and face detection pick the focal point. Pass focus:"auto" and stop hand-tuning gravity.

Format negotiation

AVIF, WebP or JPEG XL per Accept header. Median payload drops 74% against source JPEG.

Tiered edge cache

Two-layer cache with 98.7% hit rate. Purge by tag in under 150ms, globally.

Signed URLs

HMAC-signed transforms so nobody can request a 9000px render on your bill.

Bring any origin

S3, R2, GCS, Azure Blob or a plain HTTP host. No migration, no copies.

Per-route analytics

Bytes saved, cache ratio and p99 by path prefix, streamed to your warehouse.
