The biggest mistake creators make is linking out to content. Every time a user clicks a YouTube link, they leave your ecosystem. With the EmbedComponent, they stay.

Native Integrations

We support the platforms you use every day:

  • Spotify: Embed a single track, an album, or a curated playlist. Perfect for podcasters and musicians.
  • YouTube: Showcase your latest video or a channel trailer.
  • Socials: Embed a viral Tweet or an Instagram Reel directly on the canvas.

Aspect Ratios That Work

Video isn't one-size-fits-all anymore. The Embed component lets you control the aspectRatio:

  • 16:9 (Cinema): Best for YouTube videos and standard players.
  • 9:16 (Vertical): Perfect for TikToks, Shorts, and Reels.
  • 1:1 (Square): Ideal for album art or Instagram posts.

The "Link" vs. "Embed" Decision

When should you use which?

  • Use a Link: When you want to drive traffic to a specific platform (e.g., "Follow me on Twitch").
  • Use an Embed: When the content is the value. If you want them to listen to your new song right now, embed it. Don't make them click twice.
