Methods and systems provide for video-based search results within a communication session. In one embodiment, the system receives video content of a communication session with a number of participants; extracts, via optical character recognition (“OCR”), textual content from the frames of the video content, each piece of textual content including a timestamp representing a temporal location of the frame within the video content; receives, from a client device associated with a user, a request to search for specified text within the video content; in response to receiving the request, determines one or more matching pieces of textual content which match to the specified text; and presents, to the client device, the matching pieces of textual content.
