A software developer inherited a complex project with 40+ hours of video documentation and created a searchable knowledge base in just a few hours using AI tools. The process involved transcribing videos with MacWhisper and Deepgram's Nova 3 model for accuracy and security compliance, then uploading transcripts to NotebookLM for easy searching and citation. The resulting system allows team members to quickly find answers, review past decisions, and locate specific video timestamps, significantly improving productivity during project onboarding.
