PRODUCT OVERVIEW
What is Google Cloud Video Intelligence?
Google Cloud Video Intelligence is a Video AI service built on pre-trained machine learning models that automatically recognize objects, places and actions in stored and streaming video. It extracts rich metadata at the video, shot or frame level, recognizing over 20,000 objects, places and actions, and supports streaming video annotation with object-based event triggers for near real-time insights. Developers and media teams use it to build searchable video catalogs, content moderation pipelines, recommendation engines, indexed media archives and contextually relevant ad placement. Access is through the Video Intelligence API, with documentation, tutorials and a console for trying the service. All customers get 1,000 units to analyze rich video metadata free per month, and new customers also receive up to $300 in free credits.
