VAM Seek AI

Convert video to a grid image. Show AI the entire video in one frame.

Problem: Analyzing 10 min video at 1fps = 600 API calls = expensive

Solution: Compress 48 frames into one grid = 1 API call = ~600x cheaper

Features:

"Where's the car?" → AI answers with timestamps Click timestamp → jump to that scene Zoom: generate high-res grid for specific time ranges on demand Stack:

Local-only (Electron + Canvas) No cloud uploads Direct Anthropic API calls
