Search

Search returns ranked video moments from selected sources. Use it to find one recognizable scene, action, person, topic, or spoken phrase at a time.

Search and save a moment

1. Type part of a displayed title in Search videos… and select the smallest relevant source set.
2. Write a concrete prompt describing what the editor should see or hear.
3. Open Advanced only when retrieval mode, modality, ranking balance, date range, or result count needs adjustment.
4. Select Search.
5. Preview candidates and confirm the source, time range, picture, and transcript.
6. Choose a destination under Save to, select useful results, and add them to a set.

Choose a retrieval setup

Need	Recommended setup	Example
Scene, action, place, or object	Semantic + Visual	person enters a crowded station
Exact quote, name, or number	Lexical + Transcription	the project launches next month
Scene plus spoken topic	Hybrid + both	speaker explains the project timeline

If a term was transcribed incorrectly, try a spelling variant or switch from Lexical to Semantic or Hybrid.

Entity-assisted search

Use Entity or type @ when the search should start from a known person. Choose the person from the list, then verify the actual footage and time range. Entity suggestions are a discovery aid, not editorial proof.

Before saving a clip

Verify all four:

1. correct source;
2. correct time range;
3. correct preview moment;
4. supporting transcript or visible evidence.

For a complete workflow, follow Search, curate, produce, and review.
