How to identify a video
- Grab the clip. Save it, record your screen or take a screenshot of a clear moment.
- Upload it. Drop the file in the box above.
- Read the answer. The top result names the video and links to the earliest upload we find; more matches follow.
Why identify the original
- Watch the full video instead of a shortened repost.
- Credit the creator when you share it.
- Check the original caption and date before you believe what a repost says.
Why so many clips arrive without context
According to Pew Research Center, 59% of Americans get news from social media often or sometimes. Clips shared there are often cropped, re-captioned or reposted, and the original title and creator get lost along the way. With more than 20 million new videos uploaded to YouTube every day, guessing the right words to search for rarely works. Searching with the clip itself does.
