Problem

Traditional video search relies on basic text tags, missing nuanced content within scenes and dialogue. Manually reviewing large video libraries is slow and inefficient.

Solution

Intelligent video can break free from keyword limitations through:

• Semantic Understanding: AI analyzes video content — visuals, spoken words, and context—to grasp meaning beyond simple tags.

• Content Fingerprinting: Video and audio are transformed into "semantic fingerprints" (embeddings), capturing rich contextual information.

• Similarity Search: These fingerprints are then used for lightning-fast searches, finding videos based on content similarity, not just keywords.

Conclusion

You can use this to run raw videos through an automated workflow to extract metadata and contextual information, enabling rapid discovery of relevant video segments by semantic search.
