ClipCatalog
ClipCatalog is an AI-powered desktop application that turns video folders into a searchable library. It analyzes footage locally using on-device AI to detect visual content, transcribe speech, recognize faces, and build semantic embeddings — making every clip findable in seconds.
Search by natural language (describe what you need in plain English), by visual content (detected objects and scenes), by spoken words (what was said in the audio), or by face (find all clips with the same person in one click).
It also offers footage-type filtering for dialogue, voiceover, and scenic clips, technical filters for resolution and frame rate, saved search presets, transcript export as TXT or SRT, thumbnail browsing, and highlight score ranking.
Built for real archive workflows, it supports external drives, NAS, and network shares, and auto-relinks moved or renamed folders. All processing runs on your PC with no cloud uploads. One-time purchase with lifetime updates.
