🧐 What is Director?

Director is your agentic framework for video tasks - think of it as ChatGPT for videos.

It's open source and allows you to build intelligent video agents that can handle complex operations like searching through content, editing videos, creating compilations, and generating new content, all through natural language commands.

Try hosted version —

https://chat.videodb.io/⁠

⁠

Github Repo —

https://github.com/video-db/Director⁠

⁠

For example, a simple natural language command like: Upload this video and send the highlights to my Slack, sets everything in motion - Director’s reasoning will orchestrate the different agents intelligently to complete the task for you.

Director framework is built on VideoDB's 'video-as-data' infrastructure, enabling your agents to:

Process and analyze videos at scale

Search for specific moments or content

Create clips and compilations instantly

Add overlays and modifications in real-time

Integrate with various AI tools and APIs

You can use it to create quick demos, POCs, showing power of AI to non technical audience, integration with your own systems.

Built with flexibility in mind, Director is perfect for developers, creators, and teams looking to harness AI to simplify media workflows and unlock new possibilities.

⁠

👩‍💻 How do I try it?

You can quickly try out the hosted version to explore the interface at

https://chat.videodb.io/⁠

. It functions similarly to ChatGPT but is specifically designed for videos. Here, multiple agents collaborate to complete tasks. This platform also serves as a playground for exploring your video content uploaded on VideoDB.

The Director's backend and frontend are open source and available for you to modify and customize under the MIT license. Our goal is to help you get started quickly and provide insights into designing systems with Large Language Models (LLMs) at their core, as well as planning and building agentic processes. The frontend is polished and well-designed to integrate into your existing project or app, while the backend is scalable and easy to deploy.
