New launch, not tested hands-on. Jockey by TwelveLabs (“Your entire video library: organized, searchable, understood”) was #1 on the Product Hunt daily leaderboard on the morning of October 16, 2026. TwelveLabs is the video-AI company behind the Marengo and Pegasus models. Everything below comes from twelvelabs.io. We have not uploaded any footage.

No affiliate program found. twelvelabs.io/affiliate, /affiliates and /referral returned 404 on October 16, 2026. Its Partners page is for cloud providers, systems integrators and resellers, not a content affiliate program. Every link on this page goes to the official site and earns us nothing.

Summary

Quick verdict: a powerful way to search and reuse a big video archive, and the free plan is enough to try it on a few gigabytes. The weak spot is pricing clarity: usage allowances are labelled Basic, Medium and High, not in hours or calls.

Upload videos or paste public links; Jockey indexes them and you ask questions in plain language.
Search by phrase, image, clip, person, place or action, and jump to the exact timestamp.
Assemble highlight reels and sequences from your own footage and export MP4.
Marketing features: automatic ad tagging by hook, talent, format and tone; winning-hook detection; logo and talent recognition; social trend data; 15–30 second concept previews.
Works inside Claude (connector) and ChatGPT (plugin), or through the TwelveLabs API and SDK.
Plans: Free (3 GB), Plus $29/mo (50 GB), Pro $99/mo (200 GB), Enterprise custom; 17% off on annual billing.

Features

From twelvelabs.io/jockey and twelvelabs.io/pricing, October 16, 2026. Described, not tested.

Search by meaning: find a moment from a description, an image or a clip; no tags or filenames needed.
Find any quote: search everything said on camera and jump straight to the line.
Understand and organize: scene-by-scene explanations, topics, sentiment and key moments; footage grouped by person, place, topic or event.
Assemble: ask for clips, collections, timelines or highlight reels, refine and export MP4.
Ad library intelligence: tagging by hook, talent, format and tone, winning-hook detection, talent and logo recognition, performance data per ad.
Claude and ChatGPT: connect via MCP and query the same Jockey library from either assistant.
Developer API: multimodal embeddings, natural-language search, JSON-schema data extraction and frame-accurate timestamps.

Who it’s for

YouTubers and editors with hundreds of videos who keep hunting for old clips and quotes.
Marketing teams with a large ad library who want to know which hooks and creators worked.
Developers adding video search to their own product.
Not for you if you only edit a few new videos a week; a normal editor like Descript or VEED is simpler.

The catch

You cannot tell from the pricing page how much work each plan really covers.

Workload allowances are shown only as Basic, Medium and High; the page links a separate overage-pricing section for rates.
Free and Plus stop new uploads or requests at the limit; only Pro has optional overage.
Storage caps (3 GB, 50 GB, 200 GB) fill fast with raw video; big archives point to Pro or Enterprise.
Pricing is changing for existing customers on January 4, 2027, so expect the page to keep moving.
We have not tested search quality or the Claude/ChatGPT connectors.

Verdict

Free (3 GB): enough to test search on a handful of videos.
Plus ($29/mo): for a creator archive up to 50 GB.
Pro ($99/mo): for teams that need 200 GB and overage instead of hard stops.

This is the price at the moment we wrote this review (October 16, 2026). The price may have changed by the time you read it, so check the official site for today’s price.

Worth trying if: you have a big video or ad library and keep wasting time finding the right clip, quote or hook.

Skip it if: you mostly edit new footage, or you need clear, numeric usage limits before you commit.

Not tested hands-on. Prices can change; re-check twelvelabs.io/pricing before you buy.
