VideoDB

About the startup

VideoDB: Give AI agents eyes and ears VideoDB is a modern backend for AI agents, giving them the ability to see, understand, and act on video and audio in real time. It unifies storage, indexing, streaming, editing, memory, retrieval, and delivery into a single programmable system. VideoDB turns this raw, unstructured media into structured, searchable context with playable evidence, so agents can operate on it natively. Instead of treating video as files, VideoDB treats it as live context. What VideoDB does: VideoDB sits between raw media streams and agent reasoning systems. It converts video into: -> Structured context (scenes, transcripts, events) -> Searchable memory (semantic + multimodal retrieval) -> Action triggers (real-time alerts, workflows, editing) So your agents don’t just read the world — they observe it continuously. Core Workflow: See -> Understand -> Act 1. See: Ingest video and audio from anywhere: Files, cloud storage, YouTube, live streams (RTSP, cameras, drones), and desktop capture (screen, mic, system audio). All streams become agent-readable in near real-time. 2. Understand: Define Indexes-as-code to extract meaning: Scene detection, transcripts, visual signals, and custom prompts to define what “matters”. Search returns playable moments, not timestamps. 3. Act: Trigger actions directly from video: Real-time alerts via webhooks or WebSockets, agent-driven workflows and automations, and programmable editing (clips, summaries, overlays, dubbing). Integration & Ecosystem: VideoDB is built for agent-native development: -> Skill first: Install videodb skills on any agent using npx -> SDK-first: Python and Node.js -> Works with any LLM, VLM, or agent framework -> Native integrations with tools like Claude, Cursor, and Codex -> Supports MCP and agent workflows (Zapier, n8n, custom runtimes) -> Serverside processing all workloads Enterprise Security: SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA-ready with BAA support, GDPR aligned with regional deployment options, and end-to-end encryption and flexible data residency. Designed for production workloads across sensitive environments.
