AI video search: search by the video itself
Reverse Video Search Tool is an AI video search engine that searches by the video itself. Instead of typing keywords, you upload a clip or a screenshot; world-class visual AI and our proprietary verification find the original video, who posted it first and where it spread.

Keyword search vs. AI video search
| Keyword video search | AI video search | |
|---|---|---|
| What you type | A title or description | Nothing — upload the clip |
| Works when you don't know the title | Rarely | Yes |
| Finds the original upload | Not the focus | Yes, with the date |
| Finds reposts across platforms | No | Yes |
What the AI finds
- The original video and its creator
- The earliest upload we find and its date
- Reposts across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, Facebook and Reddit
- A proof report you can save and share
How to run an AI video search
- Upload a clip (MP4, MOV, WebM, GIF) or a screenshot (JPG, PNG).
- Search. The AI matches your upload against videos across major platforms.
- Review the original, the earliest upload and the reposts.
Why keywords fall short
According to Google, Google Lens lets you learn more about an image or the objects around you without typing a word. AI video search brings the same idea to video. With more than 20 million new uploads on YouTube every day, typing the right keywords to find one particular clip is mostly guesswork. Searching with the clip itself is not.
