Understand Every Post instantly with Content Lens

Written by Nicole Soria

Rewatching clips to figure out what's in them is a time sink. Content Lens do that work for you — giving you instant, structured insight into every post so you can focus on making smarter content decisions.

Content Summary: Know what's in a post at a glance

Content Summary is a plain-English description of what's happening in the clip — the visuals, any on-screen text, the audio or music, and who appears. Think of it as a smart caption that tells you everything you'd learn from watching, in seconds.

Why it's useful: Quickly review a large library of posts, brief your team on content, or understand a competitor's clips without pressing play.

Detections: See what makes your content tick

Detections automatically tag every post across 18 attributes. Instead of watching to figure out the format or tone, you can see it all in one panel.

What's being detected

What the content is about

  • Subject — The main topic (e.g. Dating apps, Beauty, Travel)

  • Activities — What's happening (e.g. Dancing, Cooking, Unboxing)

  • Genre — The content type (e.g. Tutorial, Entertainment, Review)

  • Format — How it's packaged (e.g. Clip, Long-form, Story)

What makes it feel the way it feels

  • Tone — The register (e.g. Casual, Humorous, Inspirational)

  • Vibes — The broader emotional character

  • Emotional trigger — What feeling it's designed to spark (e.g. Curiosity, FOMO, Nostalgia)

  • Hook — How it grabs attention in the first moments (e.g. Striking Image, Bold Statement, Question)

How it was made

  • Setting — Where it was filmed

  • Visual medium — Live Action, Animation, Screen Recording, etc.

  • Production quality — UGC, Prosumer, or Studio-level

  • Subject composition — Singular subject, group, product-only, etc.

Text and language

  • Text language — Language of on-screen text

  • Spoken language — Language spoken in the video

  • Text type — How text is used (e.g. Persistent Captions, Lower Third)

  • Text in media — The actual words pulled verbatim from the video

Paid and series signals

  • CTA style — Implicit or explicit call to action

  • Ad detected — Whether the post is a paid promotion

  • Part of series — Whether it's part of an ongoing content series


Filtering by AI-detected attributes

You can filter your entire content library using any of these detections across five categories:

  • Brands & Ads — brand mentions, ad formats, and sponsorship signals

  • People & IP — recognizable people, characters, sports teams, or intellectual property

  • Products & Topics — Genre, activities, and settings

  • Format & Vibe — content format, tone, and emotional feel

  • Text & Language — on-screen text, spoken language, and captioning


Getting started

Open any post in Measure Studio in the Post List.

Select the 'Summary' tab below the thumbnail.

You should now see the AI-generated description and list of detections.

Once you've explored the Summary tab, use the AI-detected attributes to filter your content library and spot patterns across campaigns, as well as export this data. You can also ask Archer to analyze posts by any of these labels — for example, "Which posts with a Humor vibe performed best this month?"
