Building the Perception Layer AI Deserves

We are a team of engineers who have spent years working at the intersection of AI, video systems, and cloud infrastructure. We came together because we saw the same problem: video is stuck in the past. Early experiments with LLMs made one thing clear to us: Agents are coming, but the infrastructure isn’t. The tools we have today were built for humans watching screens, not for software that needs to perceive the world. For AI to be truly useful in real-world environments, it needs more than just text processing. It needs a real-time perception layer—the ability to see, understand, and act on visual data instantly. So we’re building something new. Video infrastructure that treats video as a real-time data stream, not a static file on a server. Searchable. Programmable. Intelligent. This is the foundation AI needs to work with vision and audio the way it works with text. This is VideoDB.

Who We Are

VideoDB Team
We are a remote tribe. Headquartered in San Francisco, building from India. You’ll find us where nature, good vibes, music, and creativity thrive—often trading city smog for the quiet peaks of Dharamshala. We’ve been together for the past five years, solving complex challenges in video infrastructure for AI. We believe that if AI can see what we see, hear what we hear, and listen to us in real time, it can amplify human expression.

What We Built

Over the years, we’ve built a unique media format that’s optimized for AI processing. It powers:
  • A universal ingestion engine
  • A stack that lets you plug in models to understand your frames and audio without touching raw video files or streams
  • The ability to build indexes and retrieve episodic memory
  • A streaming engine that your AI can use
  • A video editing stack that AI can control to edit video information in real time
Together, this lets you build agents that can see, understand, and act.
