🔍 SMART TRANSCRIPT SEARCH
Stop scrubbing through videos looking for one specific moment. Search any transcript with intelligent semantic search that understands meaning — not just keywords. Ask "where did they explain the pricing model?" and it finds it even if those exact words never appear.

🤖 AI CHAT WITH TIMESTAMP CITATIONS
Ask anything about the video and get answers grounded in the actual transcript. The AI searches the transcript before every response — no guessing, no hallucinating content that isn't there. Every claim comes with a clickable timestamp that jumps the video straight to that moment.

⏱️ AUTO-GENERATED VIDEO TIMELINE
Let AI break the video into labeled chapters automatically. Get a bird's-eye view of exactly what a video covers and skip straight to the section you care about — without watching a single second you don't need to.

📋 FULL TRANSCRIPT WITH PLAYBACK SYNC
Browse the complete transcript while the video plays. Click any line to jump to that moment. Perfect for note-taking, fact-checking, or following along in a second language.
