Tips for better searches


Be as specific as possible (“pizza slice close-up”, “chef talking about pizza”). If you see too many results, add context (“in the kitchen”, “logo visible”). If you see too few, try synonyms (“slice” instead of “pizza”).

Filter what you’re searching

Use Filter by to choose where Flowstate should look:
  • Videos (find moments inside videos)
  • Images (find matching images)
You can select one or both.

Understand results

Smart Search returns results as cards. Videos
Shows the matching clips found inside videos. Each result is a clip (a specific time range) that matches your query.
Candidate Videos
Shows the source videos that likely contain relevant moments. Use this to quickly jump into the right video even before reviewing individual clips.

Open a result

Click a clip to open the video player. You’ll see the clip’s time range and playback focused on the matching segment, so you can review and confirm the exact moment.
