Say hello to Mux Robots 🤖
The first batch of AI workflows native to your video pipeline are live now: translate, summarize, moderate, generate chapters, spot key moments, and ask questions.
10 years ago we started Mux, and two of our founders became the two bros that chilled.
Our monthly newsletter, now in video form.
In the latest episode, @davekiss breaks down Directives, the new way to set up Mux Robots workflows once and automatically run them on every new asset. Plus, catch up on our newest content and upcoming events.
Give it a watch:
"Mux is innovating at a rapid pace. That's one of the reasons I jumped ship from our old provider." — Andrei Rafai, CTO of Disciple
Disciple moved over a million minutes of video to Mux with one engineer and came out with lower costs, built-in analytics, and a faster-moving
We chose the wrong abstraction — here's what it cost us.
In his @CascadiaJS talk, @darius_cepulis shares how a well-intentioned API broke down under real-world use, why we scrapped it, and what we learned about building composable APIs that scale.
Give it a watch:
What happens when your "simple" API grows into an unmaintainable mess? 😅
This talk by @darius_cepulis explores the tradeoffs between configuration and composition, and why the right abstractions matter more than ever in the age of AI.

"What happens in this video?" is a surprisingly hard question to ask a machine.
Find Scenes answers it by mapping a video into structured scenes of what was shown and said. It's our latest Mux Robots workflow, built on Shots.

"Without Mux, nothing you're seeing on Cutsio is possible." — @rish404, @cutsio founder
When you upload a clip, Mux Robots goes to work in the background, generating summaries, tags, key moments, and chapters that appear in real time in the UI while you keep editing.

📹 @joshalphonse introduces a new open-source React
Hot take? React Native needs a new video player — so @joshalphonse made one.
Native playback on iOS and Android, Mux Data out of the box, and Mux Robots for chapters, summaries, and key moments right inside the player UI.
Here's how he did it:
We asked a few developers what they think needs to stay — and what needs to change — as AI becomes a bigger part of how we build.
Here's what Timothy Johnson II of @crutweets and @sentry's Sergiy Dybskiy and Richard Roggenkemper had to say.
