A workflow demonstrating how the Video Agent can analyze video content, detect objects, and extract meaningful information.

​
Quick Start

1

Install Package

First, install the PraisonAI Agents package:

pip install praisonaiagents
2

Set API Key

Set your OpenAI API key as an environment variable:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
3

Create Script

Create a new file video_analyzer.py:

from praisonaiagents import Agent, Task, PraisonAIAgents

# Create Video Analysis Agent
video_agent = Agent(
    name="VideoAnalyst",
    role="Video Analysis Specialist",
    goal="Analyze videos to extract meaningful information",
    backstory="""You are an expert in computer vision and video analysis.
    You excel at describing content, detecting objects, and understanding context.""",
    llm="gpt-4o-mini",
    self_reflect=False
)

# Create video analysis task
analysis_task = Task(
    name="analyze_video",
    description="""Analyze this video and provide:
        1. Summary of main events
        2. Key objects and people
        3. Text and important information
        4. Context and setting""",
    expected_output="Comprehensive video analysis",
    agent=video_agent,
    images=["video.mp4"]
)

# Create PraisonAIAgents instance
agents = PraisonAIAgents(
    agents=[video_agent],
    tasks=[analysis_task],
    process="sequential",
    verbose=1
)

# Run analysis
agents.start()

​
Understanding Video Analysis

The Video Agent combines multiple capabilities for comprehensive video understanding:

  1. Content Analysis: Analyzes video scenes and events
  2. Object Detection: Identifies objects and people
  3. Text Extraction: Captures text shown in videos
  4. Context Understanding: Interprets settings and situations

​
