When a new video is published, we analyze the public transcript using AI to identify if it contains a first-hand encounter account. If it does, we extract the behaviors, tone, region, and exact timestamps, and add them to our database."},{q:'What is a "canonical behavior tag"?',a:'Witnesses describe behaviors in many different ways (e.g., "knocking on wood", "tree knocks", "banging on a trunk"). We map all of these to a single canonical tag — in this case, Wood Knocking. This allows you to search across all channels and find every instance of a behavior, regardless of the exact words used.'},{q:"Why do some videos have multiple accounts?",a:'Many channels feature call-in shows or compilation episodes where several different witnesses share their stories in a single video. SEI treats each distinct story as a separate "sighting account" with its own row in the database and its own deep link.'},{q:"How often is the database updated?",a:"New videos are ingested manually by the curator using the admin pipeline, which scans all monitored channels for uploads from the past week, fetches their transcripts, and runs AI extraction to identify sightings and behaviors. Check the Changelog tab on this page to see what was added in the most recent run."},{q:"Can I suggest a channel to monitor?",a:"Yes. Use the Feedback or Suggest Media form to submit a channel. Include the channel name, YouTube URL, and a brief note on why you think it belongs here. All suggestions are reviewed personally."},{q:"How do you decide which channels to include?",a:"The current list of YouTube channels was selected personally and determined to be among the more professionally run channels featuring legitimate first-hand witness accounts. The emphasis is on quality and credibility — channels that present witness testimony seriously and without sensationalism."}];function d({value:n,label:a}){return
