Back to the main movie identifier · All identification tools
Paste a clip, trailer or scene URL from YouTube. We analyse the video's thumbnail frames to identify the title.
Tip: screenshots still give the most accurate results for obscure scenes.
Paste a link to begin
Upload one or more screenshots from a movie, TV series, anime, or drama and our AI will identify it within seconds.
Two signals are better than one
Clips are noisy: heavy crops, overlaid captions, remixed audio. So the pipeline runs two independent identifications — one on the video frames, one on the transcribed dialogue — and reports whether they agree. When they do, confidence is high. When they disagree, both candidates are shown rather than hiding the uncertainty.
Works with Shorts and edits
Fan edits, scene compilations, reaction videos and vertical Shorts are all valid input. If the clip contains no usable speech, identification falls back to the frames alone and says so.
Prefer a screenshot?
For very obscure scenes, screenshots remain the most accurate route. Switch to the screenshot tab and upload frames directly.
Which links work
YouTube videos and Shorts work best. TikTok, Instagram Reels and Facebook clips are also accepted when the link is public. The AI reads what the link exposes, mainly the thumbnail, the title and description, captions and spoken audio. It does not watch every frame, so if a link gives no clue, upload a screenshot of the clearest moment instead.
Best results from a clip
Choose a link where the clip contains dialogue or on-screen text. If a recap channel has re-cut the scene, the original trailer link or a screenshot usually gives a stronger match.
Frequently asked questions
Which links are supported?
+
YouTube videos and YouTube Shorts. For other platforms, take a screenshot of the clip and use the screenshot tab.
What if the clip has music instead of dialogue?
+
Identification proceeds on the frames alone. The result will note that no usable dialogue was detected.
Can it find a movie from a TikTok or Reels link?
+
Often, yes, as long as the link is public. It uses the thumbnail, captions and audio the link provides. When those carry no clue, upload a screenshot from the clip instead.
