How this service works
Analyse a TikTok, Instagram Reel, or YouTube Shorts video. Omit format for full VideoAnalysis (transcript, scenes, visual summary). Optional format selects a workflow template (24 formats: brand safety, creator brief, recipe, tutorials, e-commerce, health, education, news, music, sports, travel — see entit.ai/docs/api#workflow-formats). Caches are per format — switching format requires a new paid job. POST a video URL; poll the returned URL (free) until ready.
Output
Returns a job ID and a polling URL. Once the job completes, the result includes the video URL, platform, language, author handle, on-screen text, full transcription, a list of timestamped scene descriptions, and a visual description. If a workflow format was specified, the result object conforms to that workflow's schema (e.g. recipe steps, product tags, health claims list). Status field indicates success or failure.
Example use cases
Brand safety screening for ad placement
“I need to check if this TikTok is brand-safe before we run ads against it — can you run a content-screening analysis on https://www.tiktok.com/@someuser/video/1234567890?”
Recipe extraction from cooking reel
“This Instagram Reel has a recipe in it — can you extract it in a structured format using the recipe workflow? Here's the URL: https://www.instagram.com/reel/ABCDEFGHIJK/”
Flashcard generation from educational Short
“I want to turn this YouTube Shorts explainer video into flashcards for studying — can you analyze it with the flashcards format? The video is at https://www.youtube.com/shorts/abcde12345”

Endpoint
POSThttps://api.entit.ai/v1/jobs?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need structured extraction from short-form social video content (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts) and want domain-specific output templates like brand safety scoring, recipe extraction, product tagging, or educational flashcards. It is the go-to option for agents working in social media analytics, e-commerce enrichment, content moderation, or creator tooling pipelines where videos need to be semantically understood. Prefer it over generic video transcription services when you need scene-level analysis, on-screen text detection, and author metadata in a single call, or when you want opinionated workflow outputs for specific verticals.
Side effects
- Unsupported video platform URL returns an error (only TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts are accepted)
- Private or deleted video URL causes job failure
- Polling URL must be checked repeatedly until job completes — premature reads return in-progress status
- Switching format on a cached video invalidates cache and triggers a new paid job
- Malformed URL input returns validation error
- Video too long or unavailable in the region may cause processing failure
