Original Summary

As a solo dev, I've learned you end up wearing every hat, and one of them is making content: demos, launch videos, social clips. That meant filming a lot of B-roll and drowning in footage, never finding the shot I knew I had. Can you relate with this? You're walking around and suddenly come across a scene and thought, "This would look great in a reel on Insta or TikTok." You take the shot; maybe it stays in your camera roll or you upload to a google drive. Months later, the need for a specific moment in that video arises and you are faced with the tedious task of sifting through hundreds of videos and a handful of data sources. It does? Read on! What it does Your footage stays yours. Connect folders or drives without moving or copying originals. Indexing and in-app search run local on your Mac, with no footage uploads. See inside every clip.

Search samples roughly every five seconds, so very brief moments can be missed. I'd rather hear where it falls short than oversell it.
