Platform roadmap

Honesty first. Every platform below has a clear status so you always know what actually works on Clearlla and what's still on the way.

Verified support

Extraction, metadata, queue, and error handling are all tested against representative public URLs.

Supported with limitations

Works for a subset of content on this platform. See the platform page for the exact scope.

In development

On the roadmap. No working extractor yet, so the downloader is intentionally disabled until it earns Verified Support.

Temporarily unavailable

Previously working, currently blocked upstream. We're tracking the fix on the status page.

Unavailable

Not supported.

On the roadmap

In development

These platforms are being scoped or built. They aren't accepting links yet, and won't until they pass the release checklist below.

In development

Twitch VODs

Clips already ship. VODs need Twitch's private playback token flow, which we won't ship half-working.

VideoHDLivestreamMetadata
In development

Live streams

Generic HLS/DASH recorder is being scoped as a shared primitive.

LivestreamAudioMetadata

Evaluated, not built

Deferred

We looked at each of these and decided against building it for now. Every one needs a logged-in session, a paid third-party provider, or a legal review that we aren't willing to hand-wave. If that changes, they move up.

X (Twitter)

API access model is shifting again. Waiting on a stable resolver path before shipping.

Instagram

Reliable public extraction requires session handling we haven't validated end-to-end.

Facebook

Only public videos will be in scope. Login-walled content stays out of scope.

Threads

Public post surface still stabilising upstream.

YouTube video & audio

Thumbnails already ship on the YouTube page. Video and audio streams are only reachable by working around YouTube's player protections, which we won't do, so this stays parked until an authorised media path exists.

LinkedIn

Public post URLs return an auth wall to anyone not signed in, so there is no anonymous read path to build on.

Snapchat

Only public Spotlight content is on the roadmap.

SoundCloud

Only publicly downloadable tracks per artist permissions.

Regional playback restrictions need dedicated handling.

VK

Resolver scoped to public wall posts.

Rumble

Every page fetch is met with a bot challenge, and the player config id only exists inside that page. Nothing anonymous gets through.

VideoHDMetadata
Deferred

Kick

Clips and VODs are published as segmented HLS with no single-file rendition. Shipping this means stitching video server-side, which we won't do half-heartedly.

Loom

The download URL comes from an undocumented private endpoint, and most share links are workspace or password restricted. Too unstable to promise.

Patreon

Strictly public posts. Members-only content is off limits.
