About Us
Our Vision
At Visonic.AI we are pioneering long-form video comprehension to unlock the next frontier of Artificial Intelligence.
Advancing Multi-Modal AI
AI is entering a new era—one where machines move beyond text and into true multi-modal understanding. We believe the next major frontier is long-form video comprehension, a crucial step toward achieving Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
Pioneering Video Understanding
We are at the forefront of this transformation, pushing the boundaries of machine learning in video processing. While AI can handle text and short-form content, long-form video remains an unsolved challenge. With rapid advancements in multi-modal models and the growing adoption of AI-powered tools, now is the perfect time to lead this evolution.
Starting with Audio Description
Audio description sits at the intersection of video and language, providing immediate value to an underserved community. By solving this problem first, we are laying the foundation for future breakthroughs, bringing AI closer to truly understanding and interacting with the world in a meaningful way.
