Animoto API

The Animoto API is a partner-facing RESTful web service for programmatically directing and rendering videos from images, video clips, music and text. The host is live and authenticating (HTTP Basic, realm "Application", observed 2026-08-13) but Animoto publishes no reference documentation, no machine-readable contract, and no route to request credentials; the developer program that supported it has been retired. Recorded here because the service is real and running, not to assert that it is publicly available.
