Video to Report

01 / Brief

Solution

Video to Report helps site inspectors, technical engineers, and technical controllers generate compliance-report drafts directly from site videos. Before this workflow, teams visited sites, took manual notes, returned to the office, and wrote reports from scratch. I built the system end to end as a solo engineer: backend, AI pipeline, prompt modeling, report templates, frontend, deployment, and production operations. The pipeline segments each uploaded video, sends segments to a VLM, extracts key moments and screenshots, then compiles everything into a structured report draft ready for office review.

02 / Constraints

Problem

• Analyzing long construction videos (up to ~30 minutes) with enough detail
• Extracting reliable report-relevant observations from unstructured video
• Keeping output quality consistent across variable site recording conditions
• Designing report templates immediately usable by technical teams

03 / System

Architecture / workflow

• End-to-end flow: record video -> upload -> segment -> VLM analysis -> report draft compilation
• VLM-based extraction of important moments with contextual screenshot references
• Structured compliance-report template generation for office review
• Built and operated solo from exploration to MVP and production

04 / Evidence

Results / impact

• 300+ hours of video analyzed
• ~3 hours saved on report drafting per project
• Faster transition from site visit to compliance-report draft
• Improved consistency in reporting workflows
