Upload a Video, Ask Anything
Upload a video or paste a link, then ask a question about it. ScreenApp answers the way a person would: from what is said, read in the transcript, and from what happens on screen, by watching the video itself. Ask “how was each goal scored” about a match, “what does the player build” about a gameplay clip, or “what happens at the door” about a camera recording, and the answer points to the moment so you can check it.
5,035 people started an AI video analysis on this page in the last 90 days.
How it answers:
- From the transcript for anything that was said, with timestamps, in 100+ languages
- By watching the whole video, picture and sound together, when the answer is spread across it: videos up to 50 minutes in one pass
- By looking at frames at the moments that matter, for a slide, a scoreboard or on-screen text, and for longer videos
- Import a link from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and most other public video links (Twitch, Loom, Dropbox, Google Drive, Pinterest, X, Threads, Douyin, Kuaishou, Bilibili) through a generic importer, or upload a file (MP4, M4V, MOV, AVI, WEBM, MKV, FLV, TS, MTS, M2TS, 3GP, 3GPP, 3G2, WMV, ASF, VOB, OGV, RM, RMVB, MPG, MPEG, M2V, F4V, MXF)
- Free plan: 2 transcriptions of recordings up to 45 minutes each, and 10 AI chats a month
How to Analyze a Video with AI
- Upload or paste a link: Upload a video file, or paste a link from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and most other public video links (Twitch, Loom, Dropbox, Google Drive, Pinterest, X, Threads, Douyin, Kuaishou, Bilibili) through a generic importer.
- Sign in and let it process: ScreenApp imports the video and transcribes it, so questions about what was said are answered straight away.
- Ask your question: Ask about anything in the video. When the answer is in the picture rather than the words, the AI watches the video or looks at the frames, then answers with the moment it happened.
A video with no speech still works: ask what happens, and the AI watches it. Watching a whole video takes longer than reading a transcript, so the AI does it when the question needs it. See how we measure accuracy.

Who Uses an AI Video Watcher
Students are the largest group. They upload a lesson, a lab experiment or a class video and ask the AI to explain what happens, step by step, including the parts shown on screen and never said out loud.
People checking footage upload a security camera or phone recording and ask what happens and when, instead of watching it all.
Gamers upload gameplay from Minecraft, Roblox and other games and ask what was built, what went wrong or what happened in a match.
People with a screen recording or tutorial ask which steps were performed, what was clicked and what an error on screen said.
Film and sports fans ask about a scene or a match: who did what, how a goal was scored, what a shot shows.
