Voodoo.tube: a video-to-clips pipeline built for handover

Voodoo.tube turned long-form video into captioned short clips. Ego Eimi built the product with Abhishek Gawade, connecting the analysis pipeline to rendering and export. The product was later acquired.

Finding a clip was only the start of the production work.

A creator repurposing a long recording needs to find an appropriate moment, cut it, reframe it and add timed captions. Selecting a passage without producing the finished video leaves much of the work untouched.

The product needed a connected pipeline that could handle a source file and deliver usable output, with job processing suited to media workloads.

Carry the source video through analysis, rendering and export.

The application accepted a URL or upload, transcribed the audio and analyzed the content to propose moments for clipping. The rendering pipeline produced vertical clips with styled, timed captions.

Next.js and TypeScript supplied the application, while Python, speech-to-text, LLMs, FFmpeg and job queues supported processing. Clip scores helped users compare suggestions, with export completing the workflow.

What the workflow includes

  • Ingest video from a URL or file upload.
  • Transcribe and identify candidate moments.
  • Render vertical clips with timed captions.
  • Present suggestions and export the resulting videos.

Product walkthrough

Ingestion, analysis, rendering and export. The delivery section explains the workflow demonstrated here.

The complete workflow became a transferable software product.

The project delivered the full path from source video to a finished clip, and the product later changed ownership through an acquisition. That history connects the delivery to the practical requirement for software to remain understandable beyond its original team.

What this means for the technology owner.

An acquirer needs to understand processing queues, storage, model providers, rendering infrastructure and usage costs. Access to the repository is only one part of that transfer. The operating record should show how a job is recovered and how the buyer can change the pipeline after closing.
