24 alternatives to MomentClip
Hey HN, I wanted a way to search across multiple YouTube videos at once, find every time someone discusses a topic, compare how different creators explain the same concept, or pull all mentions of a keyword across a channel's archive. The interesting part: it uses Gemini's multimodal capabilities to search visually, not just transcripts. So you can find "the whiteboard diagram" or "when he shows the demo", things transcript-based tools completely miss. Stack: Next.js, Convex, Clerk, Gemini 3 Flash Would love feedback from anyone who works with video content. https://momentclip.com
Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Gemini Embedding 2 can project raw video directly into a 768-dimensional vector space alongside text. No transcription, no frame captioning, no intermediate text. A query like "green car cutting me off" is directly comparable to a 30-second video clip at the vector level. I used this to build a CLI that indexes hours of footage into ChromaDB, then searches it with natural language and auto-trims the matching clip. Demo video on the GitHub README. Indexing costs ~$2.50/hr of footage. Still-frame detection skips idle chunks, so security camera / sentry mode footage is much cheaper.

Hi there! When Supabase announced their recent hackathon, I thought it was a good time to build something to learn more about so many of the new AI models and tech out there. From the different techniques of embedding documents to the future RAG. With the rise of short form content with TikTok and Youtube. A lot more knowledge is in videos than ever before. Finding specific answers within millions of videos can be difficult for any one person to go through. So the question is if there is Google that indexes text on website making it easier to find based on the context of on your question,…

TL;DR▲199I love Hacker News but I rarely have time to read full articles / comments, so I built a simple site to summarize the top posts & comments to make it easier to get a big picture. A few implementation details: - It pulls the top stories from the HN Firebase API (`/v0/topstories`) - Filters stories with >200 points - Uses Claude Sonnet for post + comment summaries - Tries to capture the sentiment of the comments (still working on improving this) - Refreshes both posts + summaries hourly It has already helped me I hope it helps you! Please let me know if you have any feedback --…

Hello HN Over the New Year's break, I created semanticvideosearch.com. This can search any video based on meaning and context. I would love to get your feedback on it. What should I change and what can be improved? The preprocessed videos can be search very quickly, while the youtube video links take some time (yt videos also have a upper duration limit due to compute issues). I intend to add search based on the frames of the video soon. I would love to know your thoughts on the demo and any suggestions for improvements. Thanks! PS: the inspiration to create this was to get the 2 mins of…

Hi HN, I'm the creator of BeyondComments ([https://beyondcomments.io]). It’s a tool that uses AI to analyze YouTube comments and extract actionable signals—content requests, brand deals, sentiment, and bug reports—that normally get buried. The Problem If you run a successful YouTube channel (or publish tech tutorials), your comments section is a goldmine. Viewers literally tell you what they want you to build or film next. But YouTube Studio is mostly built for raw numeric stats. Finding high-intent comments manually means endlessly scrolling through "First!" and "Great video bro,"…

YTTools▲11Hi HN, I often watch long lectures or conference talks on YouTube, but usually only a few minutes contain the key points I need. I wanted a way to get the gist quickly, so I built a small tool to summarize YouTube videos using AI. How it works: you paste a YouTube link, and it generates a short summary plus key transcripts. The backend is optimized so results come back in a few seconds. Design choices: - No accounts or logins (I wanted it to be instantly usable). - Free to use (I run it as a side project). - Focused on speed and simplicity. It’s still early and I’d love feedback on: -…
