VideoSummaryConverter
Produce concise written summaries of video content by combining transcript analysis, scene understanding, and key moment detection. Summaries can be formatted as paragraphs, bullet points, or structured chapters.
How It Works
Upload your video or provide a URL.
Audio is transcribed and visual content is analyzed per scene.
Key moments and topic shifts are identified.
An LLM synthesizes transcript and visual context into a summary.
The summary is returned in your chosen format with optional chapter markers.

import os, requests
API = "https://api.mixpeek.com"
H = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['MIXPEEK_API_KEY']}",
"X-Namespace": os.environ["NAMESPACE_ID"]}
# 1. a bucket, with a schema that declares the field you will send
bucket = requests.post(f"{API}/v1/buckets", headers=H, json={
"bucket_name": "video-inputs",
"bucket_schema": {"properties": {"video": {"type": "video"}}},
}).json()
# 2. land the file as an object. the URL goes in data, on the blob
requests.post(f"{API}/v1/buckets/{bucket['bucket_id']}/objects", headers=H, json={
"key_prefix": "run-1",
"blobs": [{"property": "video", "type": "video",
"data": "https://example.com/clip.mp4"}],
})
# 3. a collection over that bucket, running the extractor
collection = requests.post(f"{API}/v1/collections", headers=H, json={
"collection_name": "video-to-summary",
"source": {"type": "bucket", "bucket_ids": [bucket["bucket_id"]]},
"feature_extractor": {"feature_extractor_name": "multimodal_extractor", "version": "v1"},
}).json()
# 4. run extraction over the bucket
requests.post(f"{API}/v1/buckets/{bucket['bucket_id']}/batches", headers=H, json={
"collection_ids": [collection["collection_id"]],
"auto_submit": True,
})
# 5. read the output
docs = requests.get(
