The Problem Every Editor Faces
Video editors spend a staggering amount of time simply finding footage. Whether you're cutting a documentary, assembling a YouTube video, or editing a corporate piece, the process is the same: scroll through bins, scrub timelines, open clip after clip, hoping to find the right shot. On a single project, this can waste hours. Over a career, it adds up to weeks.
The tools most editors rely on — Finder, Adobe Bridge, or manual bin organization — are built around filenames and folder structures. They have no understanding of what's actually in your footage. You can't search for "the interview clip where she mentions the deadline" or "that B-roll of the city skyline at dusk" because your tools don't understand content.
How Invenio Changes the Workflow
Invenio brings AI-powered semantic search to your editing workflow. Point it at your footage drives, and it indexes everything automatically — the visual content of every frame, the transcribed speech from every audio track, and any on-screen text detected via OCR.
Once indexed, you search using natural language. Describe what you need, and Invenio returns matching clips ranked by relevance with frame-accurate timestamps. No tags. No metadata. No manual logging.
Three Ways to Search
- Visual search: describe scenes, objects, actions, or compositions
- Speech search: find clips by what was said — quotes, topics, keywords
- OCR search: locate slides, lower thirds, subtitles, or signage in your footage
Designed for Your Timeline
Invenio lives in your macOS Menu Bar, always one click away. When you find the clip you need, drag it directly into your NLE — Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or any editor that accepts file drops. There's no context switching, no export step, no copy-paste workflow.
- Menu Bar access — search without leaving your editor
- Drag and drop results directly into your timeline
- Works with Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and more
- Supports all video formats natively handled by macOS
Handle Any Size Library
Invenio is built for professional-scale media libraries. Whether you're managing a few hundred clips or terabytes of footage spread across multiple external drives, the app indexes everything and returns results in milliseconds. It's designed for the realities of production work — large files, external storage, tight deadlines.
Completely Offline and Private
All AI processing runs locally on your Mac using optimized models for Apple Silicon. No footage is uploaded anywhere. This is critical for editors working with NDA-protected content, pre-release material, client footage, or any sensitive media. You own your data — Invenio never sees it.
