We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Interesting. I have an unRAID server and could see this being used for my massive library of Raw footage to find clips. I am also an unRAID community developer. DM me the details of your offer. I’d be willing to help beta test it. I would also love to see keyword integration with the OSX Photos app.
Haven’t checked out the video yet but sounds interesting. Just began getting into YT editing myself and going through my massive media library definitely is a pain point for me. Would love to be a tester.
Wait, are you saying this logs footage automatically?
Like it'll look through footage and tag it without supervision?
In the video world we generally call it logging instead of adding tags. If it's doing that and you're targeting video editors replace the word indexing on your site with logging.
If this is the case you need to reach out to video post production houses. They should be all over this.
Hey thanks for tip on logging. The way it works is that you can choose a file to "index" with one of the AI models built into the app. After that process is complete, you can search for the content of the files (for example: a woman smiling, sad boy, danger). That will return the timestamp and a still from the video at that timestamp. We don't automatically generate tags/labels yet, but would consider prioritizing it that's something users wanted.
I talked with a reality tv editor a few months back...he mentioned he spent hours watching tons of footage on a normal project. Do you think this is a common problem for unscripted tv editors?
Your software sounds super awesome and I don't think you realize what you have on your hands from a video editors perspective.
Granted I don't have tons of footage to look through for most projects but it'd probably save me a little time.
I'd imagine if you pitched this software to stock footage companies they'd be all over it. Instead of tagging/logging the footage you could eventually have ai do it.
I think there's a service out there now where you can upload footage someone will tag/log it for a fee then upload it to multiple stock sites.
Istock shutterstock pondfive getty are some big ones. They may be interested in this tech.
I'd also consider reaching out to adobe, blackmagic and avid to see if they would want to buy this from you....or try to partner up with this other new ai company that figures out what broll that you shot is usable. ..combining your software with theirs would be huge (I'll edited the name here once I find it again)
You might want to checkout Stash. Obviously it's for a different genre of content but your tagging/filtering shares some similarities. But your automatic/AI video "tagging" is amazing and something that Stash is lacking.
I've heard of Stash. I'll take a closer look. Do people use it for other kinds of content?
I don't think so but I also don't see why it couldn't be.
