The Context Transfer Problem

You are surrounded by videos — meetings, recordings, tutorials, channels, cameras, and even your desktop. The real bottleneck isn’t processing power or model capability. It’s context transfer. Your agents are blind to the visual world you navigate every day. They can’t see your Zoom calls, understand your Loom recordings, or follow along as you watch a tutorial. VideoDB changes that.

​
Built for Agents

VideoDB is built from the ground up for agents. Your AI assistants can now acquire context from:
  • Meetings — Understand discussions, decisions, and action items
  • Recordings — Search and reference Loom-style videos, demos, and walkthroughs
  • Desktop perception — See what you see in real-time
  • Tutorials — Watch and learn alongside you
  • Cameras — Monitor physical environments and events
Real-time understanding of your environment changes how you act in the real world.

​
What’s Possible

Imagine Claude Code with complete understanding of your meetings and Loom recordings. Start a sharing session and watch a tutorial together — your agent follows along, ready to help implement what you’re learning. Imagine OpenClaw-style agents recording demos of any app, capturing their autonomous workflows for review and debugging. Imagine research agents navigating the internet, producing informative video summaries that cut through the noise — saving you from misinformation and clickbait.
