I was drowning in an ocean of video — and couldn't find the single sip of water I needed.
As someone who struggles with mental stamina, I constantly found myself overwhelmed by the sheer flood of streaming video. A simple question — "How do I set up skills in Claude Code?" or "At what point in this calculus course does the professor cover the Mean Value Theorem?" — would force me to sit through 40-minute tutorials or rewatch entire lecture series from start to finish.
Podcasts were no different. To find the one moment where a creator shared their insight on a business model, I'd have to listen to the entire episode. Every time, the same exhausting pattern.
The root cause? Search results can never precisely match the question inside a video. Cultural barriers, commercial incentives, and algorithmic noise conspire to make searching within streaming media feel like finding a needle in the ocean. As the Chinese proverb goes — "Of three thousand streams, I only need one sip" — yet I was drowning before I could find it.
So I built Wisdio — a name born from Wise + Video. A browser extension that extracts the essence from any video, saves you hours of watching, and helps you find that one sip of clarity in the endless stream.
