## What is Arknox?
Arknox is a premium SaaS platform that enables creators, educators, and businesses to embed YouTube videos with interactive overlays — multiple-choice quizzes, open-ended questions, polls, lead capture forms, and booking widgets — directly within the video player. It removes YouTube branding, related video suggestions, and external links so viewers stay focused on your content.

It acts as a white-labeled wrapper for YouTube, eliminating standard YouTube branding, related videos, logo overlays, and distraction points to maintain viewer engagement and retention on external sites. Arknox is used by marketers for lead generation, educators for interactive learning, and course creators for branded video courses.

- Removes YouTube branding from the video frame entirely
- Domain-lock: restrict each embed to specific allowed domains so tokens cannot be used on unauthorized sites

Add any interaction at any timestamp in a video:
- **Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ)** — quiz viewers at key moments; track per-option responses
- **Polls** — single-answer audience polls with real-time response logging
- **Lead Capture Forms** — collect name, email, phone number; export responses from dashboard
- **Booking Widgets** — scheduling prompts (Calendly-style) embedded directly in the video
- **Custom CTAs** — call-to-action cards with title, description, button text, and external link
- **Information Cards** — rich text cards displayed at a timestamp (no viewer input required)

### Folders & Playlists
- Organize videos into folders for project-based management
- Build sequential video playlists for online courses
- Import entire YouTube playlists automatically

- Export response data as CSV

### Webhooks & API

## Integration Guide & Code Snippets

Use the following guidelines and code snippets to embed the Arknox interactive player on various frameworks. Replace `YOUR_EMBED_CODE` with your video's specific embed token (e.g. `d5e12f4174201f9c2b7e41599df196c4`).

### 1. HTML / Vanilla Iframe
```html
<!-- Arknox Interactive Video Embed -->
<div class="arknox-video-container" style="position: relative; width: 100%; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; border-radius: 12px;">
  <iframe
    src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/YOUR_EMBED_CODE"
    style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; border: none;"
    allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"
    allowfullscreen
  ></iframe>
</div>
```

### 2. React
```jsx
export default function ArknoxEmbed() {
  return (
    <div style={{ position: 'relative', paddingBottom: '56.25%', height: 0, overflow: 'hidden', borderRadius: '12px' }}>
      <iframe
        src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/YOUR_EMBED_CODE"
        style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%', border: 'none' }}
        allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"
        allowFullScreen
      />
    </div>
  );
}
```

### 3. Next.js

export default function VideoPage() {
  return (
    <div className="aspect-video w-full max-w-4xl mx-auto">
      <iframe
        src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/YOUR_EMBED_CODE"
        width="100%"
        height="100%"
        frameBorder="0"
        allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"
        allowFullScreen
        className="rounded-2xl shadow-2xl"
        loading="lazy"
      />
    </div>
  );
}
```

### 4. Vue.js
```html
<template>
  <div class="video-wrapper">
    <iframe
      src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/YOUR_EMBED_CODE"
      width="100%"
      height="480"
      frameborder="0"
      allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"
      allowfullscreen
    ></iframe>
  </div>
</template>
<style scoped>
.video-wrapper { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; }
iframe { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
</style>
```

### 5. WordPress (HTML Block)
```html
<div style="position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;border-radius:12px;">
  <iframe src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/YOUR_EMBED_CODE"
    style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:none;"
    allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
```

```liquid
<div style="position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;border-radius:12px;">
  <iframe src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/{{ embed_token }}"
    style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:none;"
    allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
```

### 7. Named Viewer Tracking
Append `?viewer=UNIQUE_ID` to the embed URL to track individual viewers in analytics:
```html
src="https://youtube-embedder.arknox.in/embed/YOUR_EMBED_CODE?viewer=user_123"
```

## Embedding Guidelines
- **Aspect Ratio**: Use `padding-bottom: 56.25%` with `position: relative` on the container and `position: absolute` on the iframe for fluid 16:9 responsive embeds
- **Required iframe attributes**: `allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"` and `allowfullscreen` — removing these disables fullscreen and overlay functionality
- **Domain lock**: Configure allowed domains in your video settings so the embed only works on your site
