Video Asset Manager development is paused

I built Video Asset Manager for my own needs and worked on it for more than a year. The app is working and it's usefyl to me, but it is not complete. It probably has bugs I don't know about.

It can analyze and catalog b-roll footage, search a footage library using plain-language descriptions, and match clips to parts of a video script.

Why development is paused

The main reason I'm pausing development is lack of time. My work circumstances changed and I don't have enough energy to continue working on the app.

The app still needs some large improvements. One of them is timeline integration with video editing tools, but that would require a lot of work to build and improve. I don't have the time for it.

What Video Asset Manager is

Automatic B-Roll Logging

Video Asset Manager automatically logs and catalogs your b-roll footage using AI, so you can find the right clip by describing the clip you need instead of scrubbing through folders.

It's frustrating when you need a b-roll clip, but you can't remember where it is. You go through endless folders and scrub the video to find it. Your precious time should go toward the actual edit, not babysitting files. Video Asset Manager helps you with that.

What the app does

Automatic b-roll logging

AI analyzes and logs what's in every clip so you have a complete catalog without any manual work.

tick icon

Find clips by describing the clip

Write what you need in plain language and the app finds the best match. No filenames, no folders, no scrubbing.

Match footage to your script

Connect your script to the right b-roll clips visually and see exactly how your video will flow before you make a single cut.

Works with your existing library

No need to rename, reorganize, or re-import anything. Point the app at your existing footage and it handles the rest.

Bring your own API keys

Connect your own AI API keys and only pay the AI provider for the analysis you run. There is no separate AI subscription to Video Asset Manager.

Frequently asked questions

What remains incomplete?

The app still needs improvements. One of the largest is timeline integration with video editing tools, which would require a lot of work to build properly.

Will development resume?

I don't know. I may return to the project one day, but I am not promising that I will.
