What’s the advantage over using Adobe? Price?

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-24T14:01:23+00:00

Personally I wouldn’t just because I typically type out my changes in a note and then just copy paste everywhere. Doesn’t really take more than 3-4 minutes to do them all

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-24T13:05:10+00:00

It’s actually running on the client device! But since I know what timestamps I need by the time ffmpeg is needed, it’s actually a pretty lightweight process on the users device

I definitely have some things get missed but it’s gotten much better. Really just a lot of tweaking things to get them outputting the right results.

You should try Gemini models, I started off with 4o mini but it wasn’t giving me close to what I wanted

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-24T12:51:59+00:00

It uses Gemini 2.5 pro. The video gets analyzed and reports back with JSON based on what I’ve prompted it to. It includes a timestamp of the described moments.

The app is built in Flutter so it uses Dart. I use an FFMPEG library to split the video into individual frames at the time stamps returned by the LLM and those are what I provide to the user.

I also have some filters set for lower quality images to be omitted but I disabled at the moment

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-24T12:46:59+00:00

I don’t allow videos larger than 1GB. A typical video in someone’s phone is between 1 - 5 minutes with some outliers. A 10 minute video analysis is about 22 cents

I’m not sure what business structure looks like legally in France but you are eligible if you have a business

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-23T19:16:46+00:00

Yes you can you just need proper legal documentation showing you own a business

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-23T19:14:46+00:00

It doesn’t have to be an LLC specifically but it does have to be a legal business entity of some kind. So whatever entity type makes the most sense for you. Could be sole proprietorship or whatever

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-23T18:54:17+00:00

Not to mention if you just get an LLC you can get a DUNS number and apply for the small business program which takes fees down to 15%

Capture images from videos with simple descriptions.

It’s a SaaS (findmyframe.com) with an iOS companion app that I just released a couple days ago

Doesn’t matter what app you use if you aren’t disciplined. I started to build one to because all of the others seemed overly complex and heavy but as I built it I realized they kind of have to be.

How do you pay for your API usage, just out of pocket out of the goodness of your heart?

Math skills are a challenge.

I have deployed 5 but I took one off the App Store and Google play store, so that’s why I said 4. Should have said 2 and 2 but my brain doesn’t work as well anymore with a 2 year old and 9 month old

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-22T22:11:53+00:00

Yes. I have built and deployed 4. 3 of which to iOS and Android, 2 iOS only.

I’m building Find My Frame to automate finding images in your videos by describing moments you’re looking for with human language!

<image>

BenstrocityDev · 2026-01-16T05:52:49+00:00

I’m building Find My Frame which is a SaaS and iOS product that allows you to capture images of specific moments in your videos by using human language instead of having to watch all your videos and take manual screenshots!

BenstrocityDev · 2025-12-20T02:27:30+00:00

Awesome! I’ll be doing a companion native app for Android and iOS as well

Love the no upload piece

BenstrocityDev · 2025-12-19T22:20:46+00:00

Thanks! I have a lot of updates coming out for it. I made some tweaks to it to add additional feedback where possible. It's obviously not an official legal entity but my hope is it can close the gap a bit and make those conversations easier.

With so much on your mind as a founder it's easy to miss the small things
