AlphaPublish turns short videos into transparent, web-ready assets. Remove the background, preview the result, download a transparent WebM or ProRes 4444 master, or publish with one stable embed. Hosting, versioned delivery, cross-browser playback, and poster fallback are built in—so Framer, Webflow, and HTML creators can add transparent motion without building a video pipeline.

Could you build this?
Partial Creating the web interface and embedding workflow is easy, but robust video background removal with high-fidelity alpha channels (ProRes 4444 / WebM with alpha) requires heavy video processing pipelines.
What it would actually take: The core pipeline requires deploying neural video matting models (such as RobustVideoMatting or BiRefNet) on GPU infrastructure (Modal/RunPod or AWS EC2). Video input must be decoded, processed frame-by-frame or chunked with temporal consistency, and re-encoded via FFmpeg into ProRes 4444 and VP9/AV1 with alpha channels. Managing cost-effective, low-latency video transcoding and global CDN streaming requires specialized media infrastructure engineering.
