How to chat with a video using AI

Instead of skimming a long transcript for one detail, just ask Gaston's AI about it. It answers from the transcript itself and links every answer back to the exact moment it came from.

1. Open a transcribed file

Log in and open any file that's finished transcribing in the player.

2. Open the AI sidebar

Click the AI chat icon to open the sidebar next to the transcript. It has full context of everything said in the recording.

3. Ask your question

Ask in plain language, "what did they say about pricing?" or "summarize the first ten minutes", and get an answer generated from the actual transcript, not a generic guess.

4. Jump to the source instantly

Every answer is backed by clickable timestamps, click one and the player jumps straight to the moment that answer came from, so you can verify it yourself in seconds.

Want a written summary instead of a back-and-forth chat? Ask the AI for one directly, or check out the search guide below for finding specific moments across your whole library.

Frequently asked questions

Where do the AI answers come from?

From the transcript of the file you are asking about, and each answer links to the moment in the recording it is based on.

Is the AI assistant free?

The free plan includes a few questions per file. PRO has no limit and lets you clear the chat and start over.

Where is my data processed?

Transcription runs on GASTON's own servers in Bratislava, Slovakia. The AI assistant is the one feature that uses an external service, OpenAI.
