Director - Video Agent Framework

🧐 What is Director?

Think of Director as ChatGPT for videos. It is a framework to build video agents that can reason through complex video tasks like search, editing, compilation, generation etc & instantly stream the results.

For example, a simple natural language command like: Upload this video and send the highlights to my Slack, sets everything in motion - Director’s reasoning will orchestrate the different agents intelligently to complete the task for you.

Built on top of VideoDB’s ‘video-as-data’ infrastructure, Director enables you to:

Summarize videos in seconds.

Search for specific moments.

Create clips instantly.

Integrate top GenAI projects and APIs and create and edit content instantly.

Add overlays, generate thumbnails, and much more.

Built with flexibility in mind, Director is perfect for developers, creators, and teams looking to harness AI to simplify media workflows and unlock new possibilities. 📺
