How Mave works:
from upload to delivery, without tracking.
Mave makes it simple to host, process, and deliver video from Europe - without tracking or unnecessary complexity.
This page shows how Mave works in practice, from upload to playback, so you can see what to expect before getting started.
Upload your video
Getting started with Mave begins with uploading your video.
Videos are uploaded through the Mave dashboard or via API. Once uploaded, videos are processed and stored entirely within the EU.
- ✓No third-party processors
- ✓No external storage providers
- ✓No data leaving European jurisdiction
From the first step, privacy and sovereignty are built in - not added later.
Process and prepare
During upload, Mave prepares your video for delivery.
This includes:
- ✓High-quality encoding
- ✓Automatic subtitle generation
- ✓Adaptive streaming for different devices and connections
Processing happens automatically while your video uploads.
Once processing is complete, your video is ready to publish.
Manage and organize
Videos are managed from one clear dashboard.
You can:
- ✓Organize videos into collections
- ✓Customize player appearance and behavior
- ✓Control subtitles, playback, and layout
- ✓Update videos without changing your site
Mave keeps video management simple - even as your library grows.

Publish and embed
Publishing video with Mave is lightweight by design.
You can:
- ✓Embed video using a simple iframe
- ✓Use a raw embed for maximum control
- ✓Integrate via API for deeper use cases
No heavy SDKs.
No forced frameworks.
No hidden dependencies.
Mave fits into your existing stack - not the other way around.
Deliver fast, across devices
Once embedded, Mave delivers your video through a European CDN.
This means:
- ✓Fast, reliable video delivery
- ✓Adaptive playback across devices and connections
- ✓Performance that scales with your audience
Delivery is optimized automatically, so you don’t need to manage infrastructure or configure playback performance.
Understand performance - without tracking people
Mave provides built-in analytics designed for privacy.
You can see:
- ✓How videos perform
- ✓Which content is watched
- ✓How engagement changes over time
Analytics are based on aggregated, privacy-safe data.
- ✓No cookies
- ✓No IP tracking
- ✓No consent banners required
You get insight into content - not individuals.
One platform. One set of principles.
Mave is designed to stay simple as it grows:
- ✓From one video to thousands
- ✓From one user to full teams
- ✓From a simple embed to platform-level integration
The same principles apply at every stage:
privacy by design, European sovereignty, and lightweight integration.
