Very neat!

Can you support Clara.io's interactive 3D embeds via the Open Graph 3D Model extension: http://exocortex.com/blog/opengraph_3dmodel_extension Shouldn't be very hard.

Yep, I will add their endpoint :)

Is this just a API front end for oEmebd?

There is both an universal oEmbed API and we also have Extraction API. The extraction API is super useful when you need to know more about what the page's meta information is.

Seems nice! How does it compare to Embedly?

We're a direct competitor to Embed.ly. In my unofficial testing, we perform better at the embed level, but still have some work to do on the extract level. Our plans are priced 50-75% less (even more for enterprise plans).
