Good video service for an education saas

I'm building an educational saas app where my users are going to upload videos.

I don't want to host and stream them, so I'm trying to find a good service with nice API. Has anyone been in this spot before or has some recommendations?

Thanks!

How about something like this website? https://laracasts.com/series/building-laracasts

Thanks for the feedback.

I think Laracasts use Vimeo. But the scenario is a bit different because Laracasts is the only one uploading videos. I will take a look at this resource but I'm not sure if this will fit my scenario since every user is uploading their content and serving from their custom domain.

Thanks

You might not find a tutorial that covers everything. But instead you could try breaking it down into smaller tasks. Find a video to cover uploading a file. Find a video that covers videojs (show videos in browser) etc. That is how work when on a project. Doing things in smaller tasks will make the project more manageable

I really appreciate your feedback @sinnbeck

Actually, I already know the technical part, I just wanted to open a discussion about video hosting and streaming providers because I'm new to the e-education world and maybe I missed some important services while researching online.

Really interested in services that I can pay per user or per usage. Because I don't want to pay Vimeo 600$ while having 0 users. I need something that i can know the cost per user so I can charge it in their fee.

Thank you
