Overview
Pull a single still frame out of a video without transcoding the whole file. Send a video_url and pick frame_type: first, middle, or last, and get back a hosted JPG with its width and height. Runs on fal.ai's ffmpeg extract-frame pipeline, so it's fast because it only decodes the frame it needs. Use it as a video thumbnail generator, video frame extractor, video-to-image converter, or preview-image API for video libraries, CMS thumbnails, and content moderation previews.
