Add the script

Copy your script tag from the SmartVideo dashboard and paste it into your site's <head>. SmartVideo WordPress plugin users: just install the plugin—no code needed.
<script src="https://assets.swarmcdn.com/ cross/swarmdetect.js" data-swarmcdnkey="YOUR_KEY"> </script>
Paste this in your <head> tag. That's it.
Install the SmartVideo plugin from the WordPress plugin directory. Enter your Swarm CDN key in Settings → SmartVideo. Done.

Embed your videos

Use <smartvideo> tags, the WordPress block, or upload to the SmartVideo library. Existing Vimeo embeds on your page convert automatically.
```
<smartvideo src="your-video.mp4"
  width="1280" height="720"
  controls>
</smartvideo>
```
That's it. Seriously.

Your videos are now CDN-accelerated, ad-free, and adaptive. No encoding settings, no CDN config, no ongoing maintenance. You're done.

Simple Setup, Real Results

I implemented this on my site and immediately saw an impact. I am very impressed with how simple they have made the entire setup. It works very well and as advertised.

Love this app. I have videos on my site and this takes away the annoying suggested videos and makes them look more professional and faster. I installed Swarmify on my WordPress site and the process was very easy via the plugin.
