We have models which significantly outperform standard compression algorithms. Find some key results in our benchmark page.
Yes. Many of our codecs are built for your hardware and modality without it. But the better we understand your data, the more redundancy we can strip and the higher the compression — so sharing a sample lets us tune to your exact deployment for even better results.
Yes, fully. Go fully lossless, near-lossless, or mix the two in one pass — lossless where it matters, heavier compression elsewhere. You decide what's kept.
Yes. We measure exactly what's kept versus what's lost across a huge range of metrics, and maintain more rigorous, deeper benchmarks than anyone in the industry — tested against the standard metrics for your downstream tasks. We also work with you to identify the key information in your data and design a codec that maximises how much of it is preserved. See more on our benchmarking page.
Yes. We decode into your standard format, so your pipeline runs unchanged. In many cases you can skip decoding altogether and run analytics directly on the compressed data — faster and cheaper, because it's a fraction of the size.
Yes. We offer encryption on the compressed stream as part of encoding — one efficient pass, leaving your data smaller and protected.
