## How do you search a client's entire video archive for brand-specific moments?

The fastest way to search a client's entire video archive for brand-specific moments is to upload their library to Cutsio, which uses Visual Intelligence to analyze every frame for logos, products, brand spokespeople, brand colors, and spoken brand mentions — making every brand appearance searchable.

Marketing agencies manage years of content for each client — TV spots, social content, event videos, testimonials, and B-roll. Finding "every video that features the new product packaging" or "all content showing the CEO" traditionally requires manually reviewing each file. Cutsio makes every brand moment searchable instantly.

## Why is searching for brand moments across a client archive so difficult?

Client archives are organized by campaign and date, not by brand element. A single client might have hundreds of videos spanning multiple product lines, campaigns, and years. Finding every video that features the new logo — introduced in a recent rebrand — means reviewing every asset created before and after the change. Without visual search, agencies rely on file names, metadata tags, and producer memory. When new team members join, institutional knowledge about what exists in the archive is lost.

## How does Visual Intelligence find brand moments?

Upload the client's video archive to Cutsio. Visual Intelligence analyzes every frame for brand logos, products, spokespeople, and colors while transcribing every spoken brand mention. Searching for "new product packaging" returns every video where the new packaging is visible. Searching for "CEO interview" returns every video featuring that spokesperson. Searching for "brand tagline" returns every time it is spoken. Searching for "old logo" versus "new logo" returns the correct versions based on visual recognition of the logo design.

Visual Intelligence searches by both visual content and spoken content simultaneously. Searching for "our new feature" returns videos where that phrase is spoken and videos where the new feature UI is demonstrated on screen. This dual approach ensures no brand moment is missed.

## How do Collections and Share support agency workflows?

Collections organize content by client, campaign, or content type. Share links with password protection allow creative teams to find brand-specific moments without scrubbing through files. Clients can access only their own Collections through branded share links, ensuring content separation between clients.

## How does Agentic Chat help agencies find brand moments faster?

Agentic Chat allows agency teams to search their client archives conversationally. A creative director can ask "Show me all the videos that feature the new product packaging from the Q3 campaign" and Agentic Chat returns matching clips by analyzing visual content and transcript data across the client's archive. This eliminates the need to browse through folders organized by date or project name.

## How does Cutsio's XML export help agencies compile brand moment reels?

When the agency has identified all the brand-specific moments they need, they can export the selected clips as an XML timeline to Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve. The timeline is pre-populated with every clip that matches the search — every video featuring the new logo, every CEO appearance, every mention of the tagline — arranged in sequence. The agency can add transitions, music, and branding to create a brand presence reel without manually placing each clip on the timeline.
