AskEcho: Chaptering & Metadata

An AI-powered feature in EchoVideo that automatically analyzes uploaded video content to generate:

  • Chapters – Logical breakpoints that divide the video into digestible sections for easier navigation.
  • Metadata Tags – Key terms and concepts identified from the video, enabling improved search and discoverability.
  • Summaries – Concise overviews of the video’s main ideas, helping students quickly review content.
  • FAQs – Common questions and answers based on the video content.
  • Study Cards – AI-generated flashcards to support active recall and exam preparation.

This feature is designed to save instructors time in post-production while enhancing the student learning experience with structured, AI-generated content.

AskEcho: Content Visibility

Student-focused feature within EchoVideo that controls access to AI-generated learning aids—such as summaries, FAQs, and study cards—created through AskEcho: Chaptering & Metadata.

To encourage full engagement with instructional videos, students must watch at least 80% of a video before these AI-generated tools become available. This ensures that summaries and study aids are used to reinforce learning, not replace the viewing experience.

Key Benefits:

  • Promotes active video engagement before revealing supplemental resources
  • Encourages more thoughtful and reflective use of AI-generated study tools
  • Helps instructors maintain the instructional integrity of video content

This feature is automatically applied to videos processed through AskEcho and requires no additional setup from faculty.
