Overly - Search and ask questions inside lecture videos
by•
Overly is an AI-powered study layer for lecture videos. Students can search inside long lectures, ask questions, generate summaries, and jump to the exact timestamp where a topic is explained.
I built it during a hackathon after noticing how painful it is to revise from long recorded lectures. The MVP is working, tested by a few students, and documented.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Overly during a hackathon and later polished it into a working MVP.
The problem is simple: students often remember that a topic was explained somewhere in a lecture, but finding that exact moment again is painful.
Overly helps by making lecture videos searchable. You can ask questions, get summaries, and jump directly to the timestamp where something is explained.
It’s still early and pre-revenue, but the core flow works and a few students have tested it.
I’d love feedback on:
- timestamp accuracy
- whether YouTube/course support matters more
- whether this is stronger for students, course creators, or coaching institutes
Also open to chatting with builders or edtech people who are interested in taking this further.

Congrats on the launch!
This solves a very relatable problem. We've all had moments where we remember hearing something in a lecture but have no idea where to find it again.
Wishing you the best with Overly and looking forward to seeing how it develops! 🚀
@gabriella_anjani Thankyou so much
This hits a real pain point. As a developer I constantly find myself scrubbing through 45-minute tutorials trying to relocate that one specific explanation I half-remembered. Timestamp search is the feature I didn't know I needed until now.
Saw the local video upload feature, that's exactly what I needed. Any plan to extend it to audio files too? Podcasts and recorded meetings have the same "I know it was said somewhere" problem.
@keirodev Yeah It supports Local Video files too. as for recorded meetings this feature is not yet implemented

Congrats on the launch! Making lecture videos searchable is such a practical solution to a problem every student knows all too well.
