An AI agent plays NetHack, live on Qencode teapawt.org/i/broadcasts/1PKqrNkkL…
Hi Matthias, thank you for your patience. We have received your request from last week and it has now been prioritized and processed.
We apologize for the delay, we have definitely gotten a bit behind on some of our support requests and this new approach powered by DigitalOcean will certainly solve this. We're rolling it out to all of production by the end of the week.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention and wishing you a great week ahead!
.@digitalocean Managed Agents lets you run the AI agent you already use in the cloud, connect it safely to thousands of tools, and have it do real work.
It's a great overview and covers some of the features we loved most:
1. Using your existing harness, model, and tools
2. Setting up webhook triggers and prompt templates
3. The agent calling tools (Jira, GitHub, Slack) via a secure Action Gateway
4. On-demand workers and fast session start/resume
Output routing (e.g., Slack)
Check it out!
It's time to move your AI agents to the cloud.
Qencode built one for customer support triage. A request comes in, the agent wakes up, reads it, and files the ticket properly. @r_o_connor shows you how to build one just like it.
Bring the harness, model, and tools you already use. We run them.

.@digitalocean's Action Gateway lets Managed Agents provision, monitor, and act on your cloud infrastructure through a fully controllable and auditable layer. It's been a huge force multiplier across all of our tests, and we're finding new places to apply it on a weekly (sometimes daily) basis.
@qencode is supported on Action Gateway, so you can give your agents on @digitalocean an instant video pipeline. Launch HLS and MP4 encoding, generate subtitles and transcripts, and get smart thumbnails seamlessly with your agent using their gateway!
DigitalOcean Managed Agents is now in public preview.
Run Claude Code, Codex, or your own LangGraph agent in a runtime environment that pauses when idle. Put its tools behind one governed endpoint, and pick from 75+ open and proprietary models. One cloud, one bill.

One of the cooler things I've tried with Claude + Qencode MCP:
1. Generate word-level subtitles
2. Have Claude design a caption animation
3. Burn it into the video with
If you make Reels or short-form content, ping me for some free credits to try it out.

I have the Qencode MCP connected. I'm a course creator and I want to add subtitles to this lesson in several languages: [VIDEO URL]
1. Transcribe the whole video with Qencode speech_to_text in "accuracy" mode, with word-level timestamps. Translate it to Spanish and French (translate_languages ["es","fr"]). Keep the original language as the first track.
2. Also give me a version of the video with the captions burned in, one file per language, for platforms that don't support subtitle tracks (Instagram, TikTok): white text, dark outline, bottom third, easy to read on a phone. Use cool impact based animations.

The best thumbnail shouldn’t come down to a lucky timestamp.
Ask Qencode MCP for the strongest frame and get the timeline thumbnails for your player in the same request.
Get the perfect thumbnail using the Qencode MCP! Smart Thumbnails scans every frame of your video, ranks them, and chooses back the best one for engagement.
Check our launch: producthunt.com/products/qen…
Qencode generates thumbnails at set intervals throughout your video.
You choose how often to sample the timeline, and the platform captures a frame at each point, resulting in a full strip of preview images.
You build scrubbing previews and contact sheets straight from the source.
Available now on Qencode.
Qencode turns your source file into a ready-to-play MP4.
You upload the video, choose MP4 as the output, and the platform returns a file that plays across browsers, phones, and standalone players.
Your content reaches viewers in a format they can open anywhere.
Available now on @qencode.
Thanks! That’s what we’re aiming for: making powerful video processing capabilities much easier to integrate
