Highlights:

  • Video capture and efficient annotation limits widespread use of video review educational programs.
  • Artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision can provide automated capture and structuring of intraoperative videos.
  • We created a video review forum integrated with advanced navigation, sharing, and commenting capabilities to facilitate surgical coaching.
  • Trainees at all stages of surgical proficiency utilize our novel video platform.
Video-based educational programs offer a promising avenue to augment surgical preparation, allow for targeted feedback delivery, and facilitate surgical coaching. Recently, developments in surgical intelligence and computer vision have allowed for automated video annotation and organization, drastically decreasing the manual workload required to implement video-based educational programs. In this article, we outline the development of a novel AI-assisted video forum and describe the early use in surgical education at our institution.
