A significant amount of valuable information is publicly available in video form, unfortunately, a large proportion of this is long form content and spans hours. Learners and innovators need a way to be able to access relevant information quickly.

Our multilingual semantic search for video enables you to just skip to that part of the video that has the information you need, and accelerate information retreieval from videos.

This project was built as a submission for CohereAIHack 2023 by Abdulrasheed Bolaji Lawal and Abdulgafar Tobi Jimoh

The first time you fetch the youtube videos, you need to authenticate your machine with google servers for youtube access. We will automate this in a future release but as a stop gap, you can solve this problem by taking the following steps:

While docker is running, i.e after step 6:

Go to http://localhost:5317 in the browser

In the video url search box, type in a valid youtube url

click on Get video

Go to the terminal and copy the provided token

Navigate to https://www.google.com/device and enter the provided token
