Wistia, the video hosting platform trusted by marketers for nearly two decades, announced the launch of LLM-friendly embed codes that make video content readable and discoverable by AI-powered search engines including ChatGPT. This innovation addresses a critical gap in digital marketing: videos have been essentially invisible to large language models (LLMs) that are rapidly reshaping how consumers discover information online.
Making Video Content Visible to AI
With over 800 million weekly active users on ChatGPT alone, as announced by OpenAI last week, LLM-powered search is redefining content discoverability. Yet until now, the valuable insights, product demonstrations, and brand stories contained in business videos have been inaccessible to these platforms.That’s because LLMs can’t execute JavaScript, which is how most video players load on websites. In other words, videos are invisible to AI. Wistia’s new embed codes solve this challenge by incorporating video transcripts directly into the HTML, allowing AI tools to read, interpret and reference video content just as they would text-based information.
