Capabilities

What this feature unlocks

Ceptory Search gives teams a retrieval layer that understands timing, visuals, speech, and actions together, so users can ask for what happened instead of translating everything into timestamps and tags.

  • Scene-level retrieval across archives, meetings, surveillance, and recorded sessions
  • Speech-aware search for quotes, topics, and speaker-linked moments
  • Event-sequence search when the meaning depends on order and timing
  • Search-ready outputs that can feed review queues and internal systems

FAQ

Search: common questions

What can teams search for with Ceptory Search?

Teams can search for scenes, spoken phrases, objects, people, actions, and multi-step event sequences using natural language instead of timestamps or rigid query syntax.

Does this work only on archived footage?

No. Search can be applied to archives, recorded meetings, support calls, surveillance video, and other indexed video sources.

Why is this different from metadata search?

Metadata search only finds what has already been labeled. Ceptory Search retrieves meaning inside the video itself by interpreting visual, spoken, and temporal context.
