Richer processing for short-form videos (TikTok, IG etc)
Hi, loving Resurf 2 (+ the MCP) so far as it’s really polished and makes capture easy. One feature request: richer processing for short-form videos. Today TikTok/IG captures only get the caption, so posts where the value is spoken or on the slides (recipes, workouts, travel spots) end up nearly empty.
Would be great when I share a TikTok /IG reel, Resurf could transcribe the audio (like voice notes, on-device), read slide text with on-device OCR, then use my chosen AI provider (eg gemini in my case) to extract the summary. Even better if it could recognize places and pin them on one consolidated MapKit map, or pull out recipes and their steps.
For example, I saved an Instagram post about a New Zealand trip. The places were listed on the slides, but Resurf only saved the caption ("Comment for my guide"), so none of the places were captured.
I also saved a TikTok recipe for chicken soup, but the steps are only spoken in the video, so Resurf's summary just says "cooked in its natural juices", with no ingredients or steps.
Planned
Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. we are actively working on better extraction out of social post/reels. it'll get better soon.
