Rendobar
Rendobar is a credit-billed REST API for server-side media processing — arbitrary sandboxed FFmpeg commands, subtitle and animated-caption burning, and JSON-timeline video composition — aimed at both developers and AI agents, with an MCP server for agent tool-calling. New accounts get $5 of free signup credit before per-job nanodollar billing on top of the $9/mo Pro plan kicks in; CORS is locked to Rendobar's own app.rendobar.com dashboard rather than open to arbitrary origins (confirmed: Access-Control-Allow-Origin doesn't change no matter what Origin is sent).
