Finding Footage Shouldn't Take Longer Than Editing It

You know the drill. Hours of footage. Terabytes across a dozen drives. And no way to remember where that one clip is hiding.

You need it now. The client is waiting. But you're scrubbing through timelines, opening folders, searching filenames that made sense six months ago but mean nothing today.

Enterprise MAM systems exist — but they cost thousands, need dedicated servers, and are built for studios with IT departments. Not for working editors.

Blaze changes that.

Meet Blaze: Smart Search for Working Editors

Blaze watches your footage and builds an intelligent index — scene descriptions, transcripts, faces, objects — so you can search your library the way you actually think about it.

Type "interview with Alison by the lake" or "aerial shot of downtown at sunset" and get results in seconds. Not hours of scrubbing. Not folder archaeology. Just the clip you need.

What's a MAM?

A Media Asset Management system organizes and indexes all your footage so you can instantly find any shot or quote across your entire library. Think of it as a searchable memory for everything you've ever shot. Blaze brings that power to your desktop — no servers, no cloud, just smart search.

That Stack of Drives?
Now Searchable

You've got terabytes of footage scattered across dozens of drives. Projects from years ago. Stock footage you might need someday. B-roll that could be perfect for the right job.

They sit unplugged because organizing them feels impossible. Scrubbing through folders for that one shot wastes hours.

Index once. Search forever. Blaze builds proxies and analyzes everything — scenes, dialogue, faces, objects. Search your entire archive even when drives are offline. Plug in only when you're ready to edit.

Your entire career. Always searchable. Always accessible.

​​

Built for Chaos. Brilliant with Order.

Already organized? Blaze makes your NAS smarter.

If your footage lives on a NAS or shared drive, Blaze plugs right in. Point it at your media volume and it indexes everything automatically — scene by scene, frame by frame. Instant search across your entire library, no matter where it's stored.

Built By Someone Who Gets It

I've been editing professionally for almost 30 years. When a client asked me to find one clip among terabytes of footage across dozens of projects, I had no idea where to start.

I looked at existing MAM systems. On-premises systems wanted thousands upfront plus hundreds extra per month for AI features. Cloud solutions wanted me to upload everything and charge per gigabyte. Nothing made sense for a working editor.

So I did what any frustrated editor with too much determination would do: I built my own.

Nearly a year of intensive development later, Blaze works. Really works. Semantic search that feels smart. Scene descriptions that read well. Facial recognition that surprises me.

Now I want to see if other editors feel the same pain — and see if Blaze can be the answer.
