Private video library for Mac, iPhone, and iPad

Video Atlas

Search and stream your videos.

Turn folders of videos into a private, searchable collection on your Mac. Browse everything in one place, find remembered scenes with on-device semantic search, review duplicates, and stream to iPhone or iPad over your local network.

Every folder, one libraryBrowse videos across your Mac and external drives in one visual collection.
Search what happensDescribe a scene to find the moment you remember.
Watch on iPhone & iPadBrowse and stream directly from your Mac over an encrypted local connection.

A visual map of your video collection

Video folders tend to spread across drives, cameras, exports, and archives. Video Atlas builds a Photos-style indexed library with previews while leaving your source files where they are. Filter, sort, and group the collection by source, date, duration, file size, format, resolution, availability, and other useful details.

Describe a scene to search by what happens in the video, explore automatically discovered collection themes, or start from one clip to find others with similar visual content. The bundled TinyCLIP model runs through Core ML on your Mac, so videos, search terms, and AI inference are not sent to an external provider.

Highlights

Find the video you remember, understand your collection, and keep it private.

Indexed Mac libraryAdd folders from your Mac or external drives, then browse a fast thumbnail library without moving the source videos.
On-device scene searchSearch by filename or describe visual content in natural language, with semantic inference performed locally on your Mac.
Duplicate and similarity reviewSee exact copies and visually similar clips together, then compare previews and file details before deciding what to keep.
Private companion streamingPair an approved iPhone or iPad directly with the Mac and stream over an encrypted local-network connection—no account or cloud video library.
