Overview

FrameQuery makes video footage searchable by dialogue, on-screen content and people. Indexing identifies scene context, objects, faces, voices and speech, with transcripts separated by speaker; after indexing, searches run locally and work offline without a per-query charge. It supports more than 50 formats, including R3D, BRAW, ProRes, H.264, H.265, MKV and MXF. Sources include local folders, S3, SMB, Dropbox and Google Drive, while sharing or backup can use Drive, Dropbox or NAS. Search results can be exported to editing workflows such as Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Avid using formats including FCPXML, Premiere XML, EDL and LosslessCut. A web review page offers frame-accurate comments, drawing annotations, approvals and side-by-side version comparison. Face and voice recognition run on-device with explicit consent, but selected frames and extracted audio go to cloud services for analysis and transcription. The Free plan has no monthly indexing hours. Starter costs $19.00 USD per month and includes 10 hours of video per month. Its API is planned but not available yet.
