Hey everyone 👋 I'm Yusuf, Founder of veridive.
Long-time PH user, first-time maker and honestly a little nervous. 🙂
Here's the thing: the world's experts stopped writing and started talking. Founders explain their thinking on YouTube; scientists go deep on podcasts; doctors, investors and operators say what they really think out loud. We call it the spoken web — the biggest, fastest-growing body of human knowledge, and almost none of it is searchable, let alone answerable.
veridive makes it answerable. Ask a question → it searches YouTube live, reads the actual transcripts, ranks by who genuinely knows (not view count), and answers with a citation on every claim that plays the exact second it was said. No more scrubbing a 4-hour video for the 30 seconds that matter.
Three ways to use it:
• DeepQuery — ask the whole spoken web, any language, live demo→ https://veridive.com/chat/shared-XeS2ARyODWegvFg4Zw2d1_1_abH3MzLeCsKcEFcIznSEl1t2xxfTfuwMBequBRjK
• DeepContext — chat with your own trusted library, live demo→ https://veridive.com/chat/shared-daKA5VjBDnAaXplcSaFj48f0d8JMRlbaE787xbqm44Kf1ZhOe9D5LECAO8ghWDR4
• Studio — turn any video into slides, quizzes, mindmaps & flashcards
It's genuinely fun to use — and free to start. :)
We'll be in the comments all day — tell us what you think and what we should build next. 🙏
This feels like making YouTube search actually work the way people expect it to

@bryan_williamson3 That is exactly the feeling we were chasing, thank you Bryan. 🙏 Over 70% of views on YouTube is algorithm driven. When you search something, actually it doesn't search as we know from Google.
This is quite interesting. As a marketer, I wonder if we can get something like this for the other side. To validate whether the things I want in my video to matter will actually end up doing that.

@charan_tej_kammara Hey Charan. The creator and marketer side is something we think about a lot. Not built yet, but noted, and your framing (will what I put in my video actually land) is exactly the right question. What else would you want to measure?

Wow, finally somebody made videos searchable! :D I love watching videos (or honestly, mostly listening to), but it means going down a rabbit hole in many cases and eats up a lot of time until you finally find what you needed. Good use of AI doing all the tedious filtering job!

@margarita_s88 Hi Margarita. This made our day, thank you :) Actually you can find lots of great videos to watch as well, because we do heavy search/job on YouTube to find what you're looking and we always discover lots of under-the-radar videos for the topic.

How do you rank who actually knows, like based on channel credibility or just content matching?
veridive
@thamibenjelloun Hi Thami - in short both and more. Step one is context matching: does the transcript contain the answer, not just a matching title. Step two is authority, scored per topic, so "who knows about X" is judged differently than "who knows about Y." We lean on signals of real expertise for that domain, never raw channel size or view count.

Congrats on the launch! 🚀 The idea of making the spoken web searchable and verifiable is really compelling. Love the ability to jump directly to the exact moment a claim was made.
veridive
@alina_tyslenok_ Really appreciate it. "Searchable and verifiable" is exactly the bet, especially the verifiable part. If a claim looks too good, one click and you are at the source. What would you point it at first?
As a non-coder who learned to build off YouTube, the click-to-play citation on the exact second is the part I'd basically live in... I've lost whole evenings scrubbing a 40-minute tutorial for the one step that actually unblocks me. The claim I'm most curious about is ranking by who actually knows. For coding how-tos the top-viewed video is often a year stale and just wrong, so how does veridive surface the credible voice when the loudest one usually wins?
veridive
@luca_capone Hi Luca - this is the exact use case we built the citation for, so it means a lot coming from you. On ranking: we never trust "most viewed." We first check whether the transcript actually contains a working answer to your specific question, then weight by how credible the speaker is on that topic, and for fast-moving things like coding we lean harder on freshness so a year-stale video does not win by default. It is genuinely the hardest part of the product and we tune it constantly. If you try a coding how-to and the ranking feels off, please let me know.
Love the idea of making the spoken web searchable. I can already see myself using this for founder interviews, and long-form podcasts. Congrats!

@varun1jan great to hear that you liked and find it useful. thank youu 🙏
The “not ranked by view count” part is what makes this interesting. So much useful knowledge is buried in long videos, but trust + timestamped proof is what would make me actually use it.

@farrukh_butt1 Hey Farrukh, indeed. It's one of our core feature and how we drive more value.
