VidScio is a web app to identify movie/series names and it's details from links (like YouTube, Instagram, etc.), images, or descriptions.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could just ask the agent itself to deploy the project for x amount of months and return a live URL... Maybe agents will start using this, maybe not.
