Yes! Non-profit and academic use case is currently free. It's worth noting, the use case you are mentioning is interesting, but not exactly the workflow we are building for. We are focused on improving the workflow around a marketer/demand generation/sales person at a company who needs to use existing content to get attention on social media/blog/email. One of the ways we are thinking about this is around increasing the "shelf-life" of quality content, which doesn't get discovered because its long. This is very much a problem that appeared when businesses became content creators, as opposed to individuals. That being said, if you have any questions, please email either Ross (ross@milkvideo.com) or me (lenny@milkvideo.com) and we will be happy to help!

Gotcha, I respect that you have a focused model. I would also think that local government would be a good target audience- We have sat through some endless school board zooms (due to COVID). I am sure "shrink and share" would work there as well.

  At a high level, there are two kinds of video processing work: synthesizing/organizing and creation. There are a number of new companies appearing in the synthesizing/organizing space, because there was an explosion in the quantity of video being produced, and the software to parse it exists (speech-to-text, object recognition, better-search, etc). At least for companies, people intuitively want to share all the "best parts", but we found that people won't actually watch them. Instead highlighting one specific piece that visually looks engaging is a better way to capture attention, and then engage. Our thought process here is that there is only so much organizing/synthesizing most people will do, but there is an endless about of creation someone can do.

    It would be sexier to synthesize the cyber truck unveiling over the local planning board, but then again Buffett didn't shy away from investing in garbage pickup
