Director is a Python framework for building AI video agents that reason over complex video tasks like search, editing, compilation, and generation, streaming results instantly. It is built on top of VideoDB's video-as-data infrastructure and orchestrates multiple agents from natural language commands.

Use cases

  • build ai agents that edit videos from natural language commands
  • summarize long videos automatically
  • search for specific moments inside video libraries
  • auto-generate highlight clips and send them to slack
  • create videos from text prompts
  • add overlays and extract frames from footage programmatically

When to choose

  • you want to build conversational video workflows on top of VideoDB
  • you need agents that combine video search, editing, and generation
  • you want to orchestrate GenAI APIs for media processing

When to avoid

  • you need a standalone video editor GUI
  • you don't use VideoDB or want a vendor-independent pipeline
  • you need non-video LLM agent orchestration
