VideoRAG is a retrieval-augmented generation framework for chatting with and understanding extremely long-context videos, using a dual-channel architecture combining graph-based textual knowledge grounding with multi-modal visual context encoding. It includes a LongerVideos benchmark and a Vimo desktop application.

Use cases

  • chat with my videos using an llm
  • build a rag system over long video collections
  • search and query across many hours of video content
  • understand extremely long videos with multi-modal retrieval
  • build a knowledge graph spanning multiple videos
  • benchmark long video understanding methods

When to choose

  • you need question answering over very long or many videos
  • you want graph-based retrieval combined with visual multi-modal encoding
  • you need a research baseline for long-video RAG

When to avoid

  • you only need text-only RAG over documents
  • you need a lightweight production video search without LLM dependencies
  • you require a permissively licensed library (license is non-standard)
