Panopto Launches AI Tools to Search and Repurpose Video Content

Panopto has introduced new Knowledge Intelligence capabilities designed to help organizations and educational institutions find and reuse information stored in recorded video. The announcement includes two AI-powered tools: AI Search and AI Recast.

“For nearly two decades, we have partnered with leading educational institutions and forward-thinking corporations to make visual knowledge and learning more accessible, engaging, and impactful,” said Stephen Laster, CEO of Panopto. “That heritage continues to shape everything we build. Knowledge Intelligence extends the principles we have championed to meet today’s visual learning challenges and opportunities in a rapidly changing formal and informal learning environment.”

AI Search enables users to ask questions in natural language and receive answers generated from their organization’s video library. According to Panopto, each response includes links to the specific moments in source videos where the information appears, allowing users to verify answers and access additional context.

The company also introduced AI Recast, a feature within Panopto’s AI Video Studio that converts existing videos into shorter, avatar-narrated learning experiences. Organizations can use the tool to repurpose lectures, training sessions, product demonstrations, executive communications and other recorded content without creating new material from scratch.

Panopto said the new capabilities are built into its existing video knowledge management platform, which is used by more than 2,000 businesses, colleges and universities worldwide.
