The Discovery Agent is your AI-powered assistant for discovering, collating, and exporting video content quickly.

This guide walks you through accessing the Agent, using prompts, interacting with results, refining searches, and accelerating your video workflows.


Accessing the Discovery Agent

To get started, log into your platform and look for the Discovery Agent icon or panel on the homepage. It may appear as a chat or AI assistant widget. Click to open the interface, and you’re ready to start interacting.


Prompting

Using the Discovery Agent is as simple as typing a natural-language request—think of it like asking a researcher for help. Your prompt can be short and straightforward or a detailed brief for a video production. The Agent interprets your request and returns the most relevant content.

Reviewing and Interacting with Results

Once your query is processed, the Agent returns results that can include precise clips, photos, full videos, or a combination. Each result comes with the MXT description, giving context to what the clip contains.

You can interact with results in several ways.

Add to Cart: Add individual clips—or all returned clips—directly to your cart for bulk export.

Direct Download: Download clips straight to your local device.

See Similar Content: Request the Agent to find content similar to specific returned clips, uncovering additional relevant moments.

View and Clip: Hover over the clip to see each frame, open it to view in full along with associated metadata, and use the clipping tools to trim to the exact timecodes you need for your project.


Using follow- up prompts

The Discovery Agent remembers your previous queries within the conversation, so you can refine or adjust your search without starting over. You might narrow results to clips uploaded in the last year, focus only on interviews, or find moments that show a specific emotion. This multi-step approach allows you to explore your library more deeply and efficiently, uncovering the content most relevant to your project.


Providing feedback

Your feedback helps the Agent learn what you’re looking for. If a set of results matches your needs, give it a thumbs up. If it doesn’t, give a thumbs down and optionally explain what was missing or incorrect. Over time, this feedback helps the Agent deliver increasingly relevant results tailored to your workflows.
