What it does

Reverse Video Search is a micro side-project we built because nothing focused purely on video reverse search existed. It’s not for daily use, but it’s there when you need to find a clip’s source, stop piracy, or verify content.

Our reverse video search finds where a video came from, who posted it first, and any reuploads, duplicates, or full versions.

Reverse video search helps you find where a video appears online by analyzing its visual content instead of relying on titles or descriptions. It extracts distinctive keyframes and searches them against publicly indexed images across the web, including major video hubs, forums, and social media platforms. Reverse video search is useful when a clip has been reposted, renamed, edited, or separated from its original context. Below, we explain how reverse video search works, how to improve your results, and its limitations. P.S. — Our frame extraction happens locally in your browser, keeping your video private. Reverse video search is useful for creators, researchers, journalists, brands, and…from reversevideosearch.io

    Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • The site hit #1 on HN about a year ago. Got enough traffic that I turned it into a proper API. What's there: - REST API — 35k products, manually filterable by category, free key, 60 req/min - CLI — npx anycrap random -c food - faker.js plugin — bundled, no API call, works offline - HuggingFace dataset — full 35k rows for ML/training https://anycrap.shop/developers

  • I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

    Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
