# Video Intelligence

URL: https://docs.boldvideo.com/guides/video-intelligence







Beyond titles and chapters, Bold compiles a structured **intelligence report** for every video: what it's about, the key takeaways, who's in it, and the details worth remembering. It's the difference between "a video file" and "knowledge you can query."

## Viewing a report

Open a video and choose **Options → View Intelligence**.

<img alt="A video intelligence report" src={__img0} placeholder="blur" />

A report typically includes:

* **Main topic / subject**: a paragraph-level summary
* **Key points / takeaways**: the claims and lessons that matter
* **Participants**: who appears, with context
* **Important details**: dates, numbers, technical specifics
* **Related topics**: references, people, and concepts mentioned

You can **Download** the report, **Regenerate** it (for example after fixing the transcript), or **Remove** it.

## Video Types

What the AI extracts depends on the **video type**. A sales call and a training session deserve different treatment, so Bold ships with a set of type templates, each with its own analysis sections:

| Type                        | Extracts (examples)                                             |
| --------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **All-Hands**               | Key announcements, strategic updates, decisions communicated    |
| **Implementation Workshop** | Deliverables, step-by-step process, tools used, common pitfalls |
| **Office Hours**            | Questions asked, problems diagnosed, advice given               |
| **Podcast Episode**         | Guests, themes, notable quotes                                  |
| **General Video**           | Topic, key points, participants, important details              |

Manage types under **Settings → Video Types**. You can edit the built-in templates or click **New Video Type** to define your own, with exactly the sections you want extracted.

  The video type also steers how AI writes the title, teaser, description, and chapters. Setting the right type before generating metadata is the one AI setting that pays off most in Bold.

## Assigning a type

On the video edit page, pick the type from the **Video Type** selector above the tabs. Videos default to **General Video**.
