Build agents for archival footage

Years of games, streams, ads and meetings sit in storage, and most of it can only be found by file name. VideoDB understands every frame, so your agents can find any moment and turn it into a clip or a report.

Years of footage, searchable by what happens in it

“Every goal from last
season, as one reel”

One reel comes back, with a 9:16 cut for social

What teams ask of their archives

Agents search every frame and every word, then cut, caption and publish the moments they find.

Claude edited our launch video

Raw takes, a 12-slide deck and our paper went in. A captioned 2:14 cut and three vertical versions came out, and nobody opened an editor.

Know what your audience sees

The same understanding, as signals for your marketing, content and ad teams.

  • Social listening that sees the screen

    Find every post where your brand or a competitor is on screen, including the ones whose caption never names it.

    Read the Room, a social listening app built on VideoDB. It compares how long each brand is on screen across public videos, then opens the exact moments behind every number.
  • Retention, next to what was on screen

    Your analytics show where viewers leave. Line that up with what they saw at each drop: the hook, the pacing, the shot.

  • Context for every ad break

    Describe the scenes before each break, so the ad fits the moment and stays brand-safe. The labels arrive as JSON, or as events while the video streams.

VideoDB is video infrastructure for agents and devices that see. 1,000+ developers and agents use it every week, and it has processed 300+ TB of video.
