Hi HN

I’m Therese, one of the founders of Spiti. My co-founder, Sai, and I are thrilled to launch Spiti to the HN community!

We’ve been working on a better way for teams to organize, access, share, and collaborate on internal videos. Recently, we built the ability to record, too. It is built specifically to enhance remote and hybrid teams’ access to internal knowledge and context lost in historical conversations.

-------

*tl;dr backstory:*

We’ve worked in start-ups and larger companies. In our previous stints, searching for stuff took up a lot of time. Tooling solved for better access and collaboration in most cases, except videos. Recorded meetings, webinars, product demos, explainer videos, customer conversations, etc. were always scattered around in various folders on the cloud, links in emails, and Slack. But those videos are important, and easy access would save the team and us at least a few hours every week. ----------

We designed and built Spiti Team Video Library to address these challenges head-on and provide teams with their own private video library or, as we describe it — an internal YouTube for your team. One of the things we crafted carefully is its intuitive interface, designed to ensure a delightful viewing experience for otherwise boring team videos. Spiti also integrates seamlessly with popular storage and collaboration tools — Zoom, Google Drive, and Slack— making it easy for teams to centralize their meeting recordings, onboarding, and customer conversations — no more hunting for a video lost in the cloud or links lost on Slack channels.

*A few key capabilities:* - Native Screen Recorder (for MacOS) - Native integration with Zoom, Google Drive & Slack - Securely connect and collaborate with individuals or teams outside your organization through Spiti Connect - Organize videos into Playlists - Comments and keep the conversation going - Embed entire playlists in Notion, Coda, and webpages - Search in a video through auto transcriptions for every video

*Interesting ways our customers use Spiti* - Adding clarity to bug reports - Product demo videos for your customers - Reviewing GitHub PRs faster - Employee onboarding made async and repeatable

We'd love to talk to you and learn how Spiti can improve your remote team's productivity and provide feedback on what we have built so far. We understand that collaboration needs vary from team to team, and we're dedicated to tailoring our platform to meet those specific needs. We look forward to your comments!

There's a lot of value in making information buried in videos accessible in an organization. What tools like Notion did to documentation, I think there's a big opportunity to do that for videos. Congratulations on the launch!
Thank you for your insightful comment! We agree that there's a big opportunity to make information buried in videos accessible within organizations. With Spiti, we aim to revolutionize how teams unlock and utilize the knowledge lost in videos.

Congratulations on the launch, Spiti team!

The product has been very helpful for me. Excited to see what all you have in store.

Thank you @sauravsrijan. I'm glad your team has made Spiti it's home for all important videos. :)
I guess the founders might know that already. "Spiti" means house in Greek.
haha, ofc we do. The name was picked because of that.

house ->home -> home for your team videos. :)

You made me smile. Thank you!
