## What it is
Iframely is a self-hosted oEmbed proxy and URL metadata service that takes any URL and returns rich media embed codes and page metadata. It supports over 1800 domains via custom parsers plus generic oEmbed, Open Graph, Twitter Cards, and microformats protocols.

## Use cases
- generate embed codes for youtube videos in my app
- self-host an oembed proxy for url previews
- get open graph and twitter card metadata for any link
- render rich link previews in a chat or cms
- parse url metadata like title, thumbnail, and author
- embed tweets, soundcloud, and maps from one api

## When to choose
- you need consistent rich media embeds across thousands of publisher domains
- you want to self-host an oEmbed endpoint instead of paying for the cloud API
- you build CMS, chat, or social features that show URL previews

## When to avoid
- you only need embeds for a handful of specific providers with official SDKs
- you need cloud-only features like hosted iFrames, AMP, or player events
- your stack is not Node.js and you cannot run an HTTP sidecar service
