Description
Your saved folder is a black hole. Reelnest transcribes every reel, reads the on-screen text, and pulls out what matters — a recipe's ingredients, a trip's places, a haul's products. All of it becomes searchable: by meaning, by keyword, and down to the exact second. And now it plugs into Claude and ChatGPT. Ask "what did that pasta reel say about the garlic?" and your assistant answers mid-chat, with the line and the timestamp. Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts. Web, Android, Chrome.

Could you build this?
Partial Building a basic web UI and LLM processor is straightforward, but downloading Instagram reels reliably, running multi-modal OCR/ASR video processing pipelines, and providing fast timestamped hybrid search at scale requires non-trivial media infra.
What it would actually take: The stack needs distributed background worker queues (Celery/Temporal) running headless downloaders (handling Instagram bot detection and rate limits), FFmpeg for keyframe extraction, Whisper for speech-to-text, and OCR models for on-screen text. It indexes data into a hybrid vector/full-text database (like Qdrant or Pgvector) with custom schemas for entities and timestamps. The challenging part is scaling video ingestion pipelines and maintaining reliable video extraction against third-party platform anti-scraping safeguards.
