What we checked ourselves
Not copied from the project's own blurb. These are things we opened and verified, with the date.
- 7 Sept 2026We checked that the link to the project still resolves.
- 14 Aug 2026We read the licence text itself (LICENSE.md) and found conditions attached to how it may be used.
- 1 Sept 2026We read the project's own documentation and found no sign that development has stopped.
Where this sits among the 63 tools we list in Docs & PDF Q&A
- No API key required32 of 63
- Keeps your data on your own machine20 of 63
- Requires terminal commands20 that do not →
Only 20 of the 63 meet all of the conditions above.
Counted from our own checks: every tool we list is examined against the same criteria.
What it does
Indexes videos with transcription, frame analysis and multi-model embeddings so you can find the scene by describing it, running locally. The author is explicit that it is in active development and not production-ready, with incomplete features and bugs — fine for evaluation, premature for managing real project media. The licence text describes a dual arrangement where commercial use is paid, despite the listing showing none.
Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.

edit-mind FAQ
- Is edit-mind free?
- Yes. It runs on your own machine, so there is no usage-based cost either.
- Do I need to install anything or write code to use edit-mind?
- It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.
- Does edit-mind work on a phone?
- No. It needs a computer.
- Can I use edit-mind commercially?
- Only under conditions. The page shows 記載なし, but the actual terms — the AI model this page runs, or the provider's own terms — attach restrictions. Check the provider's terms before using it at work.
