What it is

Vivu makes video libraries searchable by meaning, returning candidate moments as time ranges. It indexes each uploaded video in its cloud across speech, visuals, speakers, on-screen text, and timing. Fast search uses one credit; Precise search adds a refinement pass, for five credits total. Searches run within a single project, and Vivu does not edit or generate video. The web app and remote MCP server support Claude and other MCP clients, including ChatGPT, over Streamable HTTP with OAuth. The connector documentation says browser uploads accept common video formats. Footage stays private to the customer's workspace, and users must sign in to access projects and searches. Uploaded videos and derived data remain in the account until the video or project is deleted; deletion is permanent. Vivu says data travels over HTTPS and sign-in uses Google Firebase Authentication, while its product backend runs in Google Cloud's us-central1 region in the United States. The Free plan is free and includes 20 indexing minutes and 50 search credits monthly. Premium is $30 a month, with 180 indexing minutes and 500 search credits monthly.
