ClipSense: AI Video Analysis & Storytelling

AI-powered video analysis tool that detects objects, persons, and events to generate contextual summaries and stories from raw footage.

The Challenge

Video editors and content creators spend countless hours reviewing raw footage to extract meaningful insights. The client needed an AI-driven system that could automatically analyze video content, detect key elements, and generate contextual summaries with minimal manual input.

Our Approach

We built ClipSense — an intelligent video analysis platform combining Google's AI services with a refined human-in-the-loop workflow.

Video Intelligence

Google Video Intelligence API analyzes video content, enabling object and person detection with high accuracy. This automated analysis eliminates the need for manual tagging.

AI Contextualization

Google Gemini establishes relationships between detected objects and persons, recognizes events, and determines locations. This AI-powered layer provides meaningful insights beyond simple detection.

Iterative Refinement

Users can review and refine detected data, eliminating false detections before generating the final contextual summary. This iterative approach ensures high accuracy and relevance.

Video Preprocessing

FFmpeg pre-processes videos by filtering based on length, size, and codecs, and downscales to 720p for optimal performance without compromising quality.

Technical Stack

  • AI: Google Video Intelligence API, Google Gemini
  • Video Processing: FFmpeg, OpenCV
  • Frontend: React
  • Backend: FastAPI
  • Database: MongoDB

Results
