About Twelve Labs
TwelveLabs is a video intelligence platform and API that turns raw video into searchable, AI ready data. It is built on two video native foundation models. Marengo analyzes frames, their temporal relationships, speech and sound for search and any to any retrieval, and Pegasus is a video first language model that generates text from combined visual, audio and speech understanding. The vendor also offers Jockey, described as a video intelligence AI agent, and publishes documentation, an API and SDK, and MCP and other integrations.
It is aimed at developers and organizations that work with video at scale. Search and discovery lets teams query entire libraries in natural language for actions, scenes, dialogue and emotions without tags. Other solutions include segmenting long form content, compliance and brand safety review with explainable output, creating highlights, and generating insights, summaries and custom reports. The vendor states it can index an hour of video in about a minute.
Pricing is usage based. The Free plan needs no credit card and allows 600 minutes of indexing, with indexes kept for 90 days. The Developer plan is pay as you go, with video indexing at $2.50 per hour, embedding infrastructure at $0.09 per hour per month, search at $4 per 1,000 queries, and Analyze input video at $1.75 per hour, with token based Embed and output rates also listed. Enterprise uses committed use contracts with custom pricing.
