Cosmos — AI-powered media search and transcription for content creators and small agencies

Stop wasting hours manually sorting through thousands of media files—Cosmos lets you search your entire video and image library by what's actually in them, then transcribes and organizes everything automatically, all running locally on your computer.

What It Does for Your Business

Cosmos is a desktop application that brings artificial intelligence directly to your computer, letting you search through photos, videos, and other media files using plain English descriptions instead of file names. Instead of clicking through folders trying to remember which video contains the client meeting or which photo shows the product at a specific angle, you simply type what you're looking for—"person wearing red jacket" or "office meeting scene"—and Cosmos instantly finds matching content. The tool runs entirely offline and locally, meaning your media files never leave your computer and you don't need to pay ongoing cloud storage fees.

Beyond search, Cosmos automatically transcribes video and audio content, turning hours of footage into searchable, editable text in minutes. For small video production companies, marketing agencies, and content creators charging by the project, this eliminates the $1-3 per minute freelancer transcription costs. Because everything runs on your own hardware rather than cloud servers, there's no per-gigabyte pricing model—you pay once and process unlimited media files.

Key Features

• AI-powered semantic search — Find media by describing what you see rather than relying on file names or manual tagging
• Image similarity matching — Upload a reference photo and automatically find visually similar images across your entire library
• Video scene detection — Locate specific moments within videos without watching them end-to-end
• Automatic transcription — Convert video and audio to text faster than real-time playback
• 100% local and offline — All processing happens on your computer; nothing uploaded to external servers
• No ongoing subscription for processing — One-time purchase model rather than per-file cloud fees

Best For

Video production companies, freelance videographers, digital marketing agencies, content creators managing YouTube or social media libraries, real estate agents organizing property footage, legal firms managing video depositions, and product-based e-commerce businesses organizing large photo catalogs. Also useful for any small business that regularly shoots training videos, client testimonials, or internal documentation.

Pricing

Cosmos offers a free version with limited features and a paid Pro plan starting around $99 for perpetual local use (pricing varies by region and current promotions).

Business ROI

A freelance video editor managing 500+ hours of client footage currently spending 40 hours monthly organizing and transcribing saves approximately 30-35 hours monthly using Cosmos—worth roughly $900-1,050 in recovered billable time at standard rates. Small agencies eliminate $300-500 monthly transcription outsourcing costs. Marketing teams searching through 10,000+ product photos spend 5-10 minutes instead of 30-45 minutes finding specific shots, increasing content production velocity. The payback period is typically 1-3 months for businesses producing more than two hours of video monthly.
