AI video analyzer: let your AI watch the video

This AI video analyzer lets ChatGPT and Claude watch videos. On their own they read a link's title and description; Puley watches a YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or X video, picture and sound, and tells your AI what's shown at each moment.

That's an example. Create a free account and read yours for real; it works on anything public.

Short answer

Can ChatGPT watch videos?

Not from a link on its own: given a video link, ChatGPT reads the title and description, not the picture. With Puley added, it can. Puley watches the video itself, picture and sound, and returns a timeline of what's shown, the on-screen text word for word, the products and places in it, and an answer to your question.

How to

Two ways to understand a video

The free way works. The Puley way is one message, on any device, and you can ask about the result.

Transcript only

Free, words only

  1. Copy the video's transcript or captions.
  2. Paste them into your AI.
  3. You get what was said, nothing that was only shown.

With Puley

Picture and sound

  1. Ask: “What does this video show? [link]”
  2. Puley watches the whole video and notes each scene, text and item.
  3. Ask follow-ups: steps, products, what's on the label.

Questions

AI video analyzer: questions

Which videos can it watch?

Public YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and X videos: up to 60 minutes on YouTube and 20 minutes on the others.

Is this the same as a transcript?

No. A transcript is what's said. Watching also covers what's shown: scenes, on-screen text, products and places.

How long does it take?

Seconds to a minute: a 90-second reel took 16 seconds, a 9-minute TikTok 38.

Which plans include it?

Plus and Pro, about two reads per minute of video.
