Where have you been the last 10 years?

The API-first approach is nice here. A lot of developers are looking for lightweight and flexible rendering solutions without adding unnecessary complexity to their workflow. The positioning feels very developer-friendly.

RenderIO solves a genuinely annoying infrastructure problem in the most direct way possible. One community commenter summed it up well: "Where have you been the last 10 years?" — and that reaction says everything about the market need. If your app touches video in any way, this is worth evaluating seriously. The absence of a free tier is the only real friction between curious developers and a tool that clearly delivers.

A free tier will definitely help you gather more users. Just reduce the Started tier to a bare minimum commands/month along side a significant API rate limit.
