SceneSearch

Designed for video editors, assistant editors, documentary filmmakers, and creators managing large hard drives of footage, SceneSearch works as a fast sorting and search step before you bring clips into your editing software.

This lets editors organize and pick their best shots across computer folders and external hard drives without slowing down DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or Avid Media Composer with terabytes of unused raw footage.

Unlike cloud storage platforms that require slow uploads and charge monthly fees per terabyte of storage or per minute of video, SceneSearch runs 100% locally on your own computer. It scans your videos right where they already live on your hard drives without uploading files to the internet, duplicating clips, converting formats, or locking your folders into a custom database.

Rather than relying primarily on guessing the right text prompt, SceneSearch organizes your library around practical camera and editing details. Editors can instantly sort and filter footage using automatic camera and file filters alongside stackable search tags for Shot Framing, a named Face directory, over 1,200 recognized everyday objects, and spoken audio transcripts (with plain-English visual search available as an extra option).

Key Features:

• Scans Hard Drives in Place: Group any mix of folders and external hard drives into Projects while leaving your original camera folders untouched on disk. Supports standard video files (such as MP4, MOV, MKV, and AVI) as well as still photos.

• 11 Automatic Camera & File Filters: Skip hours of manual bin sorting.

• SceneSearch can automatically group your footage by Aspect Ratio (from widescreen to vertical), Resolution, Frame Rate, File Format, Video Encoding Format, Color Range, Audio Channels, File Size, Date Range, Time of Day, and Clip Length.

• Stackable Search Filters (No Prompt Guessing Required): Instead of relying on a single text box, you just combine the search filters you wish at once.

• Works on a flat monthly rate for unlimited videos and projects with no cloud storage fees or per-hour transcription charges.
