We are thrilled to announce a major upgrade to our backend processing engine. After months of development and testing, our new asynchronous download engine is now live — delivering up to 3x faster download speeds for all users.
The core improvement lies in how we handle video processing. Instead of processing downloads sequentially, our new engine leverages parallel task execution, allowing multiple data streams to be processed simultaneously. This means you can start downloading virtually instantly after submitting a URL.
For premium users, the benefits are even more pronounced. With priority queue placement and dedicated processing resources, Pro and Business plan subscribers will experience minimal wait times even during peak usage hours.
We've also improved our caching infrastructure. Frequently requested videos are now served directly from our edge cache, significantly reducing download times for popular content. Combined with our R2-backed storage system, this ensures reliable and fast delivery worldwide.
These improvements reflect our ongoing commitment to providing the best possible user experience. We'll continue to optimize and refine our systems in the coming months.
