Load near the viewport
A lightweight JavaScript loader waits until a video is near the visible page before fetching its configuration.
Hublah for websites
Webflow video hosting. Ready when visitors are.
Give testimonials, background videos and website stories a home beyond the page itself. Hublah hosts your video files and loads each embed as visitors get near it—not every video at once.

A small embed. A choice of experiences.
Choose how it plays
Silent background loops, a thumbnail with a play button, or a click-to-open popup.
Paste into Webflow
Upload your video and copy its code into a Webflow Embed element. No iframe is needed for these hosted videos.
Make it yours
Choose a thumbnail and play-button colour, and see a simple view count in your private library.
Made from everyday use
A simpler home for website videos.
Robin already uses Vidzflow for video hosting on his Webflow websites. Hublah began with a practical question: could his own lightweight tool handle those videos alongside his personal recordings?
The result is a private prototype with a small embed loader and a choice of playback styles. It is being tested for commercial interest, not sold as a proven faster or cheaper replacement for Vidzflow.
Where it fits on a Webflow site.
Testimonial libraries
Use a thumbnail and play button for each story, rather than making every video load upfront.
Background loops
Choose a silent looping video for a section where moving footage adds something useful.
Click-to-open videos
Let a visitor open a popup player when they want to watch, without giving the player all the space on the page.
How a Hublah video reaches Webflow.
01 / Upload and choose
In the private library, upload your video, choose player, background or popup mode, and set the thumbnail and play-button colour.
02 / Copy the embed
Copy the generated snippet into a Webflow Embed element where the video belongs, then publish your Webflow page.
03 / Load when it is near
The small loader waits until the embed is near the visible page before requesting the video configuration. Hosted-video embeds do not need an iframe.
Lazy loading changes when video requests happen. It does not reduce the original file size: video length, resolution and compression still matter. Hublah does not currently transcode uploads.
A few good questions.
Will Hublah make every website faster?
Lazy loading can reduce upfront video requests, but results depend on your files, page design and connection. Hublah does not currently transcode or compress uploaded videos, and we haven’t published comparative speed benchmarks.
Is this a Webflow marketplace app?
No. The current prototype works through an embed code you paste into Webflow. Hublah is an independent tool, not an official Webflow app.
How is this different from Vidzflow?
Hublah explores lightweight website embeds and personal video messages in one place. It is still a private prototype, so it is not being offered as a complete replacement for a commercial hosting service yet.
More than website hosting.
