At a glance
Modo
Simple video hosting you run from your AI agent. Built on Cloudflare Stream, with a clean player, share links, private signed links and an MCP server.
Best for
Businesses with a modest amount of video and modest traffic: product demos in docs, landing-page videos, a small course library, client videos. Especially teams that already work with Claude or another AI agent.
Pricing
$39, $99 or $199 per month by minutes stored and minutes streamed, plus $2 per 1,000 extra minutes streamed. 15-day free trial, card up front, no free plan. Prices include VAT.
Strengths
- Published allowances and a published overage rate, no per-seat pricing
- Upload, import, share and delete by asking your AI agent over MCP
- Cloudflare Stream underneath: adaptive streaming and global delivery
- Public by default, private with signed expiring links when you need it
Limits
- Not the cheapest option: free and low-cost plans exist elsewhere
- No free plan
- Little marketing tooling: no lead forms, heatmaps or webinars
- New product with no long track record yet
SproutVideo
Secure business video hosting.
Best for
Businesses that want private, password-protected hosting with published GB-based plans.
Pricing
From its pricing page: Seed $15 per month ($12 annual), Sprout $45 ($35), Tree $95 ($72), Forest $295 ($195). Overage from $0.25 per GB down to $0.06. Seed's bandwidth is listed inconsistently on the page, so check it. Checked 2026-10-26.
Strengths
- Published plans and overage rates
- Cheaper entry plan than Modo
- Focus on secure, private video
Limits
- Limits are in GB, harder to translate into minutes watched
- No official MCP server found (unverified)

Which one fits you?
Who Modo is best for
Businesses with a modest amount of video and modest traffic: product demos in docs, landing-page videos, a small course library, client videos. Especially teams that already work with Claude or another AI agent.
Who SproutVideo is best for
Businesses that want private, password-protected hosting with published GB-based plans.
Using both
If you are comfortable writing your own tooling, a raw platform such as Cloudflare Stream or Mux costs less. Modo sells the finished product on top: accounts, embeds, private links and the agent workflow.
