Glance uses an AI-powered video pipeline to automatically convert long-form horizontal videos into mobile-optimized vertical short clips at scale.
•The solution processes 1-2 hour videos from podcasts, news, and web series into 30-180 second vertical clips using speech-to-text transcription and Gemini for segment identification
•Active speaker detection via Google Cloud Vision API identifies who's talking and positions them in the frame, with liveness checks to distinguish live speakers from static images
•Split-screen detection recognizes interview layouts and stacks speakers vertically using Samurai object tracking and OpenCV, preserving conversation context in vertical format
•Dynamic caption highlighting generates word-level timestamps for karaoke-style captions that improve engagement when videos play without sound
•Automated branding applies masks, logos, and overlays programmatically to maintain consistency across all processed videos
