B-roll from web search frames is a feature on zlabz.io that lets you search the internet and instantly stream real webpage screenshots into your video timeline as B-roll footage.

What types of content can I search for as B-roll?
You can search across web pages, news sites, documentation, social media, and more using zlabz.io.
