Quotefinder helps people find a video from a line they only half remember. YouTube search matches titles and descriptions, not what is said in a video, so a remembered line is hard to find. You type or speak the line, optionally name the creator, choose a time window, and describe the scene. Quotefinder searches YouTube's official API, ranks the matches, and shows the video with an embedded player. It shows only links it has checked, and it clearly states that it hasn't verified the exact moment in the video because it doesn't read transcripts. Creators have a second feature, the creator archive. A creator signs in with Google, indexes captions from their own videos, and searches them to find the moment they said something. Caption text is shown only to that creator, and it is deleted after 30 days.
