Are outgoing webhook event payloads signed with a shared secret, and if so, what hashing algorithm is used to verify them?

What the pages say

No page on the site addresses this.

The fix

Publish developer documentation or a security FAQ that explains whether outgoing webhooks are signed with a shared secret and documents the hashing algorithm (e.g., HMAC-SHA256) buyers should use to verify payloads.

06What is the exact monthly cost of the Business plan if I pay annually, and does that price include all video hosting and bandwidth fees?pricingHedges+2 pts est.

What is the exact monthly cost of the Business plan if I pay annually, and does that price include all video hosting and bandwidth fees?

What the pages say

The retrieved chunks do not mention a “Business” plan. Vimeo’s current Self-Serve plans are Starter ($12 per month billed annually), Standard ($25 per month billed annually), and Advanced ($75 per month billed annually), with Enterprise available via custom pricing. Regarding hosting and bandwidth fees: Self-Serve paid plans include the bandwidth and storage capabilities stated at purchase, but if you exceed your bandwidth allowance, Vimeo may charge fees for excessive usage, require you to upgrade, or terminate your account. Vimeo OTT specifically advertises “no hidden bandwidth fees.”

The fix

Add a clear pricing section that either lists a “Business” plan with its annual monthly cost or explicitly states that the plan has been renamed/retired, and clarify whether bandwidth and hosting are included in each Self-Serve tier or only in specific products like OTT.

07If I exceed the weekly upload quota on the entry-level plan, will I be billed an overage fee or will uploads simply be blocked until the next cycle?pricingHedges+2 pts est.

If I exceed the weekly upload quota on the entry-level plan, will I be billed an overage fee or will uploads simply be blocked until the next cycle?

What the pages say

The chunks specify that Vimeo's Basic (entry-level paid) plan has a 500MB weekly upload quota, but they do not state whether exceeding this upload quota results in overage fees or blocked uploads. Chunk [3] alludes to 'video upload limits or bandwidth overage risks,' and chunk [6] explains that exceeding bandwidth allowances may result in fees, upgrade requirements, or termination, but this policy is explicitly scoped to bandwidth rather than upload quotas.

The fix

Add a clear explanation on the upload or pricing page describing what happens when a user exceeds their weekly upload quota (e.g., whether uploads are blocked or an overage fee is charged).

08Do Enterprise accounts include single sign-on through SAML 2.0, and can we enforce it for all team members?securityHedges+2 pts est.

Do Enterprise accounts include single sign-on through SAML 2.0, and can we enforce it for all team members?

What the pages say

Enterprise plans include single sign-on through SAML 2.0: the site states that Enterprise plans add "SSO integration (SAML/SCIM)" and lists "SSO (SAML) and SCIM (OKTA, AZURE)" as an Enterprise feature. However, the chunks do not explicitly state whether administrators can enforce SSO for all team members. One chunk notes that "Enterprise accounts with SSO can authenticate team members automatically for internal sharing," but mandatory enforcement is not addressed.

The fix

Add explicit documentation stating whether Enterprise administrators can require SSO authentication for all team members and how that enforcement is configured.

09What is the guaranteed uptime SLA for Enterprise accounts, and what service credits apply if Vimeo falls below that percentage?supportHedges+2 pts est.

What is the guaranteed uptime SLA for Enterprise accounts, and what service credits apply if Vimeo falls below that percentage?

What the pages say

The retrieved chunks state that Enterprise members receive "a guaranteed uptime SLA," but they do not specify the guaranteed uptime percentage or detail any service credit terms.

The fix

Add a dedicated SLA page or an Enterprise plan details section that explicitly states the uptime guarantee percentage (e.g., 99.9%) and the service credit schedule that applies when availability falls below that threshold.

How many team member seats are included with the Standard plan, and what is the cost for each additional seat?

What the pages say

The Standard plan includes 5 seats (some pages list it as “5+ seats”). The retrieved chunks do not specify the cost for each additional seat beyond the included amount.

The fix

Add the per-seat price for additional team members on the Standard plan to the pricing or plan comparison page.

11How long does Vimeo retain deleted videos in a recovery bin, and can an admin restore them without opening a support ticket?operationsHedges+2 pts est.

How long does Vimeo retain deleted videos in a recovery bin, and can an admin restore them without opening a support ticket?

What the pages say

Vimeo retains deleted videos for a “short period” in case you wish to reverse deletion, and the Terms describe this as a “limited period of time” in case you wish to restore it. However, the chunks do not specify the exact retention duration (e.g., a number of days), and they do not state whether an admin can restore deleted videos without opening a support ticket.

The fix

Specify the exact retention period for deleted videos (e.g., 30 days) and document whether account admins can self-restore deleted videos from a recovery bin without contacting support.

12Does Vimeo support DRM protection for live streams, and which specific DRM systems are compatible?securityHedges+2 pts est.

Does Vimeo support DRM protection for live streams, and which specific DRM systems are compatible?

What the pages say

Vimeo Enterprise mentions optional digital rights management (DRM) to safeguard video content against unauthorized downloads and screen recording, but the chunks do not explicitly state that DRM is available for live streams specifically. The live stream security FAQ lists password protection, domain restrictions, SSO, viewer analytics, download restrictions, and unlisted streams, but does not mention DRM. None of the retrieved chunks name specific DRM systems (e.g., Widevine, FairPlay, PlayReady) that are compatible.

The fix

Add a clear statement on the live streaming security page specifying whether DRM is supported for live streams, and list the specific DRM systems (e.g., Widevine, FairPlay, PlayReady) that Vimeo integrates with or supports.

What the pages already answer cleanly

3 of 15. Answered with enough specificity for a buyer to act on. This is the bar the queue above is chasing.

limitsAnswered

What is the maximum file size allowed for a single video upload, and does that limit vary by plan tier?

What the pages say

Vimeo states that there are no size limits for individual video files. Instead of a per-upload maximum, plans impose tiered weekly upload quotas and total storage limits: Free plans are limited to two videos per month (25 lifetime) with no per-file size cap; Basic allows 500 MB/week uploads with 5 GB total storage; Plus allows 5 GB/week; Pro allows 20 GB/week; Pro Unlimited includes 3 TB total storage; Business includes 5 TB; and Premium includes 7 TB.

securityAnswered

Can I password-protect an individual video while keeping the rest of my public profile and portfolio page visible?

What the pages say

Yes. Vimeo manages profile visibility and video privacy as separate settings, so your profile can remain public while individual videos are password-protected. Paid plans include a per-video "Password" privacy level that requires a password to view that specific video, and profile privacy is controlled independently—you can leave your profile visible while locking specific videos.

WebMCP: two parts

WebMCP-capable browsers run the widget at runtime. Crawlers without JS rendering need the discovery manifest to find your tool surface. Install both.

1 · Widget script

<script async src="https://sitedex.dev/widget.js"></script>

Drop in <head>. WebMCP-capable browsers (Chrome 146+ Origin Trial) call navigator.modelContext.provideContext() via this script.

2 · Discovery manifest

{
  "$schema": "https://wellknownmcp.org/schemas/webmcp.json",
  "name": "vimeo.com",
  "tools": [
    { "name": "search", "description": "Search vimeo.com's indexed content." },
    { "name": "get_page", "description": "Fetch a page from vimeo.com as markdown." }
  ]
}

Host alongside the script at /.well-known/webmcp.json. Crawlers that don't render JS rely on this.
