@covacut launched Moving Image Archive, a free library of 100,000 historical video clips spanning public-domain footage from the 1910s to the 2000s.

The standout feature is shot-level search: each clip is tagged with year and duration (from 2 seconds up to nearly a minute). It's a ready-to-use resource for video creators and AI video workflows — reference material, datasets, or style research.
