Connect Claude & ChatGPT to VideoDB

Ask your AI to find the moment someone mentions pricing in a video, cut a clip of it, or get the transcript. It can upload media from a URL, index videos by what is said or shown, search one video or a whole collection, and create stream links and thumbnails in VideoDB. It can also translate speech, record an online meeting and generate images and audio.

Try asking

  • “Where in the webinar do we talk about pricing?”

    The AI searches the indexed video and returns the matching moments with timestamps and a stream link.

  • “Cut a short clip of the product demo part.”

    It creates a clip from the video based on your description of the moments you want.

  • “Upload this video from the URL into the Marketing collection and index what is said.”

    It uploads the video into the collection and starts a spoken-word index so it can be searched.

What your AI can do

Search inside video

Index videos by spoken words or scenes, then search one video or a whole collection and get moments with timestamps.

Clips, streams and transcripts

Media and collections

Upload media from a URL, organise collections, rename or delete videos, record meetings and generate images and audio.

  • “Get me the transcript of the board meeting recording.”

    It starts a transcript if needed and returns it once it is ready.

  • “Search all videos in the Training collection for scenes with a whiteboard.”

    It searches the collection's scene indexes and returns the matching moments.

  • “How many credits have we used?”

    It reads your VideoDB credit and usage summary.

Questions

What can the AI do in VideoDB?

The AI can list and read collections, videos, media, indexes, transcripts, job results and your usage. It can upload media from a URL, create collections, index, search, transcribe and translate videos, cut clips, create stream links and thumbnails, rename and delete videos, send a bot to record an online meeting, and generate images and audio.

Does the AI see my VideoDB API key?

No. Your VideoDB API key is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on. Deleting a video is permanent, a meeting recording bot is visible to participants, and generating images or audio uses account credits, so these can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own VideoDB account, and generating images and audio uses credits in that account.

Does a video need to be indexed before the AI can search it?

Yes. The AI first indexes the video by spoken words (what is said) or scenes (what is shown). After that it can search inside the video or across the whole collection, and cut clips based on a description of the moments you want.
