In plain words

Mindstamp is a tool that transforms videos into interactive experiences by adding questions, branching paths, buttons, hotspots, lead capture forms, and calls to action. It allows creators to track viewer responses, clicks, navigation paths, and completion rates. The platform enables viewers to answer questions, make choices, and submit information during playback, with content adapting based on individual viewer interactions. Analytics show what each viewer watched, understood, and engaged with throughout the video.

    Hi HN I built Video Forms: a tool that lets you attach questions to specific timestamps in a video, optionally with branching/skip logic.

Surveys lose context; comments are unstructured. How it works (high level): - You create a “video form” by placing questions at timestamps (e.g., 0:18, 0:42) - The video can pause to ask the question, then continue - Answers can branch to different follow-up…
