Transformative impact of Discovery Agent on video production workflows is recognized at annual International Broadcasting Convention.

Leading AI-driven video discovery company Moments Lab is pleased to announce its new Discovery Agent won Future’s Best of Show Award, presented at IBC 2025 by TVBEurope. The award is a testament to the Discovery Agent's ability to accelerate video production by democratizing the search and discovery process, enabling creative teams to find specific moments in their media library with natural language prompts.

Powered by Moments Lab’s patented MXT-2 technology, The Discovery Agent is an AI-powered research assistant designed for anyone working with large video libraries, from seasoned editors to new digital content producers. The tools most teams rely on weren’t built for today’s search needs, often leaving compelling video moments buried beneath generic keywords and specific naming conventions. Discovery Agent changes this by removing the common bottleneck of not knowing what content is in an archive and empowering users to find great footage on their own.

“The products nominated for the Best of Show program provide an outstanding overview of new technology at the show and recognize the very best broadcast and AV products and solutions on display at IBC - shining a spotlight on the very best,” said the awards editorial team.

Frederic Petitpont, co-founder and CTO at Moments Lab, said:

"We built Discovery Agent because we saw a disconnect between how users ideate and want to search and the traditional search tools available today. It’s an honor to receive this Best of Show award as we provide new ways for Moments Lab users to manage, search, repurpose, and monetize their video content with agentic AI.”

A New Era of Video Discovery

Unlike traditional keyword search, the Discovery Agent offers an intuitive, conversational experience. Users simply describe what they need in plain language, ask follow-up questions, and provide clarifications just as they would with a colleague. This semantic understanding means the Agent can grasp the true intent behind queries, including synonyms and varied phrasing, unearthing clips even if the exact words aren't in the metadata.

The Agent is able to crawl the web to provide additional context and insights for video stories, and has the capacity to search and rank over 150 million moments in a single discussion. It delivers moment-level results with timecode precision. This means users get the exact moment, shot, or full video they need, drastically accelerating workflows and allowing teams to focus on crafting compelling stories rather than hunting for source material.

Available Now for Moments Lab Users

Moments Lab customers can now use Discovery Agent in their workspaces, and the powerful new feature was also showcased in the 2025 IBC Accelerator Project, AI Agent Assistants for Live Production championed by ITN, BBC, and Channel 4.
