What Is Reverse Video Search?
Reverse video search helps you find video source by matching the video itself, even when only a short clip is available. A reverse video lookup analyzes visual frames and audio patterns to identify reuploads, clipped segments, screen-recorded copies, and other reused versions of the same footage. This allows you to locate related posts across different websites, even if the video has been edited or shared under new accounts. A reverse video search engine is commonly used to find original video posts and see where the same content appears across the public web. Reverse video search is designed for discovery and tracking — not for video editing, playback reversal, or accessing private content.
What You Can Do with Reverse Video Search
Content Tracking
Detect where your videos are reused, reposted, or clipped across the internet. Erasa’s reverse video search analyzes visual frames to help identify unauthorized reuse early, even when videos are edited or shortened.
Find the Original Video
Trace short clips, memes, or cropped segments back to the original source or full version. Useful for identifying original uploads, confirming ownership, or understanding where a video truly comes from.
Fact-Check Videos
Check whether a video has appeared before or been taken out of context. Reverse video search helps verify authenticity by showing how the same footage appears across different platforms.
Protect Privacy
See if personal or sensitive videos are being reshared without your awareness. Use reverse video search to assess exposure risks and decide whether further action or removal is needed.
How Erasa Reverse Video Search Works
Frame-Level Visual Matching
Erasa analyzes visual frames and key regions within videos to find similar videos across the web. This allows the reverse video search engine to detect related footage even from short clips, cropped segments, or edited versions.
AI-Assisted Search with Context Signals
Beyond visual similarity, Erasa applies AI-assisted video search techniques and incorporates available public context such as titles, thumbnails, and descriptions. Combining visual and contextual signals improves matching accuracy without relying on visuals alone.
Focused Scanning Across High-Risk Platforms
Erasa scans public platforms where video reposting and unauthorized reuse most commonly occur, including TikTok, YouTube, Instagram Reels, X, Reddit, Telegram, and creator communities. This focused approach helps surface recent and relevant matches from the public web.
Clear Results with Direct Source Links
Search results include direct links to where matching videos appear online. These links help you find the source of video, verify originality, identify potential unauthorized reuse, and decide whether protection or removal should be considered.
