Local Footage Shot Finder

Find shots in local video frames and photos with natural language, callable by MCP agents

Problem

Creators and editors pile up huge local media libraries, but finding a specific shot means digging through folders and timelines. Ordinary asset managers help you find files, not shots. For example, finding a frame of "a person running on the beach at sunset" relies on memory and slow scrubbing.

Solution

Index local media by splitting video into frames or shots and generating embeddings, so users can search visuals with natural language. Also expose an MCP interface so Codex, Claude, Cursor and other agents can search, preview, organize, and even export clips for the user.

Users

Indie video creators, editors, and marketing teams with large local media libraries

MVP

Import local media and split by shot; natural-language search across video frames and photos; image-to-image search; tag and folder management; expose an MCP server; fully local with no uploads.

Revenue

Free tier with a media cap (e.g., 5GB), Pro as a one-time purchase for unlimited capacity, later add team licensing.

Why now

Local models and vector retrieval are now lightweight enough, creators strongly want media to stay off the cloud, and the MCP ecosystem just opened up. Letting agents operate asset libraries is a new scenario an indie developer can claim early.
