About Cloudinary
Cloudinary is a cloud platform for managing images and video. It stores media, transforms it on request and delivers it to websites and apps, with tools for teams that manage large libraries of assets.
What it does
Media files are uploaded to Cloudinary, which stores them and serves versions sized and encoded for each visitor's device and network. Developers control this through APIs, while content and marketing teams use a web interface for organizing, approving and tagging assets. The platform also offers AI features that generate, transform and tag media.
