Name: Encoding.com

Quick Pitch: Encoding.com is the leading SaaS provider of studio-class video encoding services. It scales instantly and supports all popular media formats.

Genius Idea: One of the most tedious aspects of online video creation is the encoding process. Sure, YouTube is great for some purposes, but it's not really the ideal platform for getting high-quality video onto the web in a number of different formats.

You can encode video into multiple formats on your desktop computer, but the process just to go from MPEG-2 to .h264 can be extremely time-consuming, especially if you want to actually get any work done on your computer while the encoding process is taking place. Plus, the best encoding software (which can do multiple formats and batch processing) can cost a lot of money. Plus, once you do have the video encoded, you still have to upload it to a web server anyway.

That's why Encoding.com is so brilliant. Encoding.com utilizes cloud computing platforms like Amazon Web Services and the Rackspace Cloud to make video encoding efficient and hassle-free for small businesses and larger production houses alike.

This Software as a Service lets you upload video using the program's web-UI or Adobe Air desktop app and select what formats you want the video to be encoded to use. Then Encoding.com will process the video and upload it directly to either your web server or back down to your hard drive. It can also integrate with video services like Brightcove and even Hulu. You can even get plugins for Drupal and WordPress sites to directly link up with your Encoding.com account.

Encoding.com has a number of different payment plans — monthly, prepaid or usage-based. Using parallels servers, the encoding process can take place much more quickly and efficiently. If you've been looking for a way to encode your video content into multiple formats in an efficient and inexpensive way, check out Encoding.com.
