What you get back

Search inside the video, not just the transcript.

Docsie checks frames across the whole recording, together with the audio, so you can find what happened on screen even when nobody said it.

Every match, not the first one

Each finding has its own timestamp and frame, so a long recording becomes a list of moments you can step through.

Describe it in your own words

Ask for objects, actions, on-screen text or a change in the scene. No tags or training needed.

Read the camera's own clock

Where a camera burns in its date and time, each finding carries both clocks, which helps when cameras disagree.

How it looks

Question in. Timestamped findings out.

Product captures from Docsie's test environment, October 2026, on CC BY footage and a screen recording generated for testing. No customer footage.

Common questions

Finding moments in video

Using Video Analysis

Q: How do I find a specific moment in a long video?

A: Describe it, for example "every time someone opens the side door". Docsie returns each matching moment with its timestamp and frame, so you jump straight to it instead of scrubbing.

Q: Can I search inside a video for an object or event?

A: Yes. AI video search here works on what is visible and audible: objects, actions, on-screen text and changes in the scene.

Q: How do I review hours of security camera footage quickly?

A: Ask for the event you need. Docsie lists every candidate moment with its frame, and a person confirms each one. Footage from several cameras can be reviewed together.

Q: Is this a clip finder for video editors?

A: It works for that too: ask for the moments you want and use the timestamps to cut clips or a highlights list.

Q: Can it find a specific person by their face?

A: No. It describes what is visible, such as clothing, vehicles and actions. It does not do face recognition or identity matching.

Q: How long can a video be?

A: Up to 40 minutes per video. Longer recordings are split, and the findings are merged onto one timeline.

Q: Where does my footage go?

A: Use Docsie's cloud, or deploy Docsie on your own infrastructure so footage stays inside your network.
