TECXIPIO REVERSE VIDEO SEARCH API 

Video matching

SAVE TIME AND MONEY BY IMPLEMENTING REVERSE VIDEO SEARCH TECHNOLOGY

Integrate the TECXIPIO Reverse Video Search API into your internal processes and replace the high share of manual and time-consuming steps involved in textual video search with a powerful video reverse search software. 

IDENTIFICATION OF VIDEOS BASED ON TEXT SEARCHES

Icon-textual-search.png

The prevalent methods of searching and identifying videos are based on descriptive taggings and still involve significant manual work that is both time- and cost-intensive and can lead to imprecise results.

IDENTIFICATION OF VIDEOS BASED ON VISUAL SEARCHES

The TECXIPIO Reverse Video Search API allows you to skip the manual and time-consuming aspects of verifying the search results. Our software automatically compares the fingerprints of a large number of videos and identifies matches – including even highly altered or low-quality videos.

Benefits visual search

BENEFITS OF VISUAL SEARCH

Video tags

Make untagged videos searchable

Duplicate video files

Identify duplicates independent from differentiating IDs, file size, format and all other factors

Missing video tags

Eliminate false or missing results due to inaccurate and mislabeled tags

human errors

Rule out human error rates 

Accelerate working processes

Automate, simplify and significantly accelerate working processes

Automatically compare and match a large number of videos using a powerful software to perform video reverse searches. 

APPLICATIONS OF REVERSE VIDEO SEARCH SOFTWARE

Media identification and monitoring

Management of large media archives

Spam video filtering/Upload filters

Quality control

Our computer vision APIs are powerful tools for developers to easily implement visual search technology into websites, apps, and database management systems to scale and optimize searching and crawling processes.

How it works

HOW DOES THE REVERSE VIDEO SEARCH API WORK?

How to reverse video search

Upload reference videos  

Upload query videos and choose between standard and advanced search 

Only the fingerprints (not the original videos) are stored in TECXIPIO's cloud

Fingerprints are generated

The fingerprints of query videos are matched against the fingerprints in the cloud

Fingerprints are generated

The API returns detailed results for identified matches 

Integrate the TECXIPIO Reverse Video Search API into your internal working processes. Upload reference video(s), and the query videos and the API will return all IDs of videos that have been identified as duplicates; in addition, it returns an indicator of the match degree.  

The technical and functional API documentation give all the specification you need in order to use the API. 

Technology

TECXIPIO'S REVERSE VIDEO SEARCH API

Our video fingerprinting and matching technology achieves high-quality matching performance at high processing speeds. It combines the best of both: machine learning and classical engineering-based computer vision.

RECOGNITION OF HIGHLY ALTERED VIDEOS

Our recognition is robust to scaling, rotation, mirroring, stretching, squeezing, perspective skew, (compression) artifacts, and partial occlusion – among others; both sub-frames and super-images of the original content can be recognized.

HIGH TRUE-POSITIVE RATES

Our powerful image matching core technology allows our video matching to offer a high true positive rate at a close-to-zero false positive rate, even when only detecting tiny portions of original content.

DETAILED RESULTS

For each matched video, we provide the number of matched keyframes and an estimate for the percentage of the original content based on the matches and their timestamp relationships; this percentage serves as a reliable measure when deciding whether to trigger further action.

OPTIONAL ADDITIONAL POST-PROCESSING

Depending on your needs, a more computationally expensive full frame-by-frame comparison of detected matches can be performed in a post-processing step, that would allow for the accurate computation of the covered percentage.

HIGHLY FLEXIBLE SEARCH AND MATCHING ENGINE

We currently offer two versions of the TECXIPIO Reverse Video Search API and you can decide whether you want to use the standard or advanced search. The standard search identifies duplicates and altered versions including rotation, scaling and brightness modification. The advanced search has been developed to also reliably identify heavily modified videos; it can also recognize occlusions and sub-, and super-images of original content. You decide according to your needs and budget because the visual search engine can be modified further – you may also need to check for horizontally mirrored, stretched or squeezed videos, – let us know about your application and we can adapt the API individually, which will increase its speed and decrease our costs and therefore also yours!

CONFIGURATIONS 

The API includes the option to decide whether you need standard or advanced fingerprinting and matching with each API request. The advanced is based on a robust matching algorithm that identifies even highly-altered videos, including occlusions and sub-, and super-frames of the original video. The standard search will identify duplicates and videos that have been altered through rotation, scaling, or brightness modification. 

Depending on your needs, we also offer the API with custom configurations that can recognize videos that have been horizontally mirrored, stretched, or squeezed. Contact us if you want to check which matching algorithm would be most efficient for your needs, to get the fastest and most cost-effective Reverse Video Search API! 

API CONFIGURATIONS 

STANDARD

  • Exact duplicates

  • Rotation

  • Scaling

  • Modified brightness

ADVANCED

Basic configuration 

+ Occlusions

+ Sub-frames

+ Super-frames

CUSTOM

Add additional transformation types such as: 

+ Mirroring

+ Stretching

+ Squeezing

You are unsure which is your best solution? We also individually check what is most efficient for your required applications and can configure the parameters of the video fingerprinting and matching to offer the most cost-effective API settings for you. Contact us to optimize your workflows and save money!

Free Test Key

FIND THE MOST EFFICIENT SETTING 

We will give you free credit that is valid for 30 days to test which configuration of the video fingerprinting and matching best fits your needs. As soon as you switch from the test to a regular account, you will only get charged for the API calls requested at the end of the month. 

Since there are some set-up costs and we will block database space for you, there is a minimum number of 15,000 credits – worth 15€ –  that you will be charged per month but there is no long cancellation period, you can delete your account at the end of a month (the last day) to the following month. If you register in the middle of a month, the minimum number of credits will apply proportionally until the end of the first month. 

Get started with the full version

Get started with the TECXIPIO Reverse Video Search API; we recommend giving us more details about your application to ensure that you have the most efficient settings. 

  • Minimum 15,000 calls/month  

  • No long-term contracts, can be canceled at the end of a monthly term

  • Standard and advanced searches

  • Exact accounting at the end of each month

NOT YET WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR? WE CAN DO A LOT MORE...

As standard, we offer the TECXIPIO Reverse Video Search API as Software as a Service, which means that you can easily implement the API in your internal searching and crawling processes.

Are you at the very beginning of your project?

If you need any further assistance to set up the whole process, please contact us. We also deploy whole software systems with our clients who need to set up matching processes for various different use cases from scratch. Our team is highly experienced and will certainly be able to help! 

In addition, the API can be adjusted to your individual needs – do you want to search for videos with images or are you looking to find only identical, unaltered videos? 

Contact us to find the best solution for your applications.
