Find the exact clip you need
ClipCatalog turns your video folders into a searchable library. Whether you need to find a person by face, locate a clip by what someone said, or search by what's in the shot — everything runs locally on your computer, across every drive you own.
What do you need to find?
Find every appearance of a specific person
You know someone is in your footage but not which files. Face search finds every clip a person appears in — across years of videos on multiple drives, including footage outside your phone's photo library.
Search videos by spoken words
Find the exact moment something was said across your whole library. Offline Whisper transcription, no uploads, no per-minute fees.
Find B-roll by what's on screen
You need a four-second shot of a sunset, a crowd, or a coffee cup — and you know you have it somewhere. ClipCatalog runs AI tagging on every clip locally; stack AI tags with Match-All / Match-Any to pull matching B-roll from your entire library.
Organize footage across drives and NAS
Internal SSDs, external drives, NAS shares — one library catalogs them all. Search clips even when a drive is unplugged.
Search a TB-scale video library
Past a few terabytes, scrolling stops working. Combine tag, transcript, face, and metadata filters into one query and drop thousands of clips down to dozens — across every drive, with no per-minute fees.
