Nate Westheimer, the co-founder and executive vice president for product and technology at AnyClip.com and the executive director and organizer of the NY Tech Meetup, demoed AnyClip for us and talked about how the company plans to make money through affiliate revenue, advertising and partnerships.
The site uses meta data to allow users to search words or subjects to find specific movie clips. In the video, you’ll see Westheimer search gas station and several movie clips in which a scene takes place at a gas station show up. The idea is similar to that of SpeakerText, which we’ve written about, in that it helps make online video more usable and searchable.
The biggest challenge, for the startup, is getting the licensing to use clips from movies and working with studios to expand its library of clips. But with a team of some 20 people working at AnyClip, they have an opportunity to grow the library quickly.
