Short answer

How can I track my video performance with AI?

Your AI uses the api.video connector to pull specific play counts and impression data for your videos. This allows you to monitor engagement and reach through simple chat commands. You'll see the specific breakdown of these metrics below.

Data outcomes

Where your metrics land

What you get from these analytics.

METRICS

Real-time play counts

The AI fetches exact view numbers for your specific videos. You get the raw data without logging into a dashboard.

REACH

Impression tracking

Your agent pulls impression data to show how often your content is being seen. This helps you gauge visibility.

INSIGHTS

Performance summaries

The AI aggregates the retrieved data into readable summaries. You can ask it to compare different videos side-by-side.

HUMAN

Strategic decisions

The AI provides the numbers, but you decide how to adjust your content strategy based on those trends.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI acts as the bridge between your video library and your chat interface.

  1. Fetch video data

    Your agent identifies the specific video you want to check and pulls its unique identifiers.

  2. Extract metrics

    The AI isolates the play counts and impression numbers from the raw API response.

    get_video_analytics

  3. Format results

    The agent turns the technical data into a clean, readable format for your chat window.

    get_video_analytics

  4. Analyze trends

    Your agent compares current metrics against previous data points to highlight changes in performance.
