Connect your existing applications to the video intelligence via API.
The same engine that powers OTIS SaaS UI — exposed as a production REST API. Send video. Get back AI-clipped scenes, video logging, vector embeddings, audience attention scores, and timecodes. Async, AWS-native.
Built for product and platform teams adding agentic video intelligence to MAMs, editing tools, content pipelines, and custom apps — without standing up an AI engineering org. One API. One contract. One latency budget.
Four Capability Areas. One API.
OTIS API exposes the full Agentic Video Intelligence stack — the same engine that powers OTIS SaaS — through a clean REST interface. Use what you need. Skip the AI build.
Video Logging and Storage
Ingest long-form video and get back a complete digital understanding. OTIS analyzes script, visuals, audio, and psychological markers. Every video is indexed and stored as a searchable asset with full scene logging and metadata tagging.
POST /v1/videosAuto Clipping and AI Logging
Automatic scene detection and clipping from long-form content. Every clip is logged with action tags, dialogue transcription, visual annotations, and timecoded references back to the source. Clip by script hooks, visual arcs, or story flow.
POST /v1/videosNatural Language Search Across Storage
Query your entire archive using natural language. Search by scene, action, dialogue, visual elements, or emotional context. Sub-second results across petabyte-scale archives, filterable by logging classification, audience score, demographic, or test status.
POST /v1/searchAudience Testing and Behavioral Scoring
Privately stream clips or full videos to verified online audience panels. OTIS captures eye tracking, attention, engagement, disengagement, emotion, and view time per viewer. Post-viewing survey responses are structured into behavioral scores tagged to each clip.
POST /v1/clips/{id}/testscreenSend Video. Get Intelligence Back.
Four steps, async by design. Built so a single integration request unlocks the whole pipeline — and nothing in your system has to wait on it.
Send the video
POST a file URL or upload directly. Accepts MP4, MOV, MKV, HLS streams, or S3 references. POST /v1/videos
OTIS processes
Auto-clipping, video logging, dialogue transcription, vector embedding, and optional audience-test queue — all in parallel.
Manifest ready
The full asset manifest is returned: every clip, every score, every embedding, every timecode. Production-ready in seconds.
Query anytime
Search semantically, retrieve clips, pull behavioral scores, embed in your own UI. The asset stays live in your library forever.
Choose your analysis depth — set per video.
Every POST to /v1/videos takes an analysis parameter. Pick the depth you need, pay only for what you turn on, mix and match per asset.
Store Only
Push video into secure storage. No AI processing — OTIS as a vault. Good for archive intake or regulatory copy.
analysis: "store"Visual Analysis
Scene detection, object & action tagging, vector embeddings. The fastest path to a searchable archive.
analysis: "visual"Visual + Script
Adds dialogue transcription and script-based clip detection — hook extraction, story-arc clipping.
analysis: "visual_script"Visual + Script + Biometrics
Adds actor emotion analysis and scene psychological mapping. The full creative profile, ranked and clipped.
analysis: "visual_script_biometric"Three methods, set per video on ingest. By script hooks, by story arcs (visual + script), or by visualization flow (pure visual). All return timecodes and clip references in the manifest.
Optionally route a clip or full video to a verified online panel on ingest. OTIS captures eye tracking, attention, engagement & disengagement, emotion, and view time per viewer, plus post-video survey responses. Results land in the manifest, tagged to clips.
Production Scale. Integrate with Your Existing Applications.
OTIS is built to sit behind your product, not behind a sales call. Petabyte-ready storage, natural language search at scale, async-by-design pipelines, AWS-native deploy.
