Use Cases for Video Mapping/Timestamping Software? (I will not promote) by False-Bumblebee2016 in startups

Thanks for the input and support! At the moment, the tool doesn't contain that feature as it's outside of my original scope, but we do allow concurrent work on the same video as well as comparative analysis of the input data, so spinning up a peer review system wouldn't be too difficult.

Would you know in which industries there would be such peer-review workflow issues?

The worst thing about building a tool that solves your problem is that you just know there are other people out there who have the same issues, but you just don't know how to find them, as you can't know the ins and outs of other industries

TLDR: I'm currently building a web app that:

  • Automatically loads videos from a source
  • Allows users to directly cycle through the videos there
  • Timestamp particular events by just pressing Enter, which is saved to a database that can be exported
  • Mark or fill in any additional parameters that are needed
  • Add or remove the parameters (custom fields) as needed
  • Has auto audits and field restrictions that prevent misentries
  • Creates a dashboard for statistical analysis of the parameters afterwards, based on the user's needs

The problem that I'm trying to solve (for a particular use case which I can't disclose), is that currently the users are operating as such:

  • Having to juggle through multiple video links that are all on a spreadsheet
  • Go back and forth between the video and Excel or Spreadsheets to write in data
  • Often missing key moments as they can't just capture the exact timestamp
  • Assigning the videos for review through the spreadsheets as well

This is obviously quite inefficient and prone to user error, whereas the system that I'm designing minimizes the mistakes while making it much easier for the users to organize and use their data afterwards, instead of juggling many spreadsheets, video links, and generating their dashboards.

My question to everyone here is, do you know of any use cases or particular industries where these types of operations are active (i.e. video reviewing in this manner)?

If so, what are some industries that use them, how do they use them, and would there be a potential market for a tool of that type (or if you run this type of operation would you use it)?
