Summarize YouTube videos into notes with the key points
It opens each video in its own Chrome, reads the transcript and writes the notes, on the clone’s own computer, which you can watch. Signing up is free, with no install and no card; a dedicated cloud computer starts at $19/month with AI credits included.
Why a chat assistant alone cannot do this
A chat reply cannot open a video link or read what is on the page. A computer with its own browser opens each video, brings up its transcript and writes notes you can check against the timestamps.
How it goes
- You paste the video links or name a channel and a count, using the prompt below.
- It opens each video in its own browser and reads the transcript where the video has one.
- It answers with notes per video: key points, each with a timestamp so you can jump to it.
What you tell it
The exact prompt. The button at the bottom of this page puts it in your own chat, ready to run.
Open these three videos: <link 1>, <link 2>, <link 3>. For each, write five key points with the timestamp where it is said, and one line on who it is for.
Limits, said plainly
- It needs a transcript or captions on the video; a video without one is reported as not readable, not guessed.
- Long videos are summarized from their transcript, not watched frame by frame; anything shown only on screen can be missed.
- It does not download or republish the videos.
What it costs
USD per month, billed by Stripe, cancel any time (effective at the end of the period). The machine runs around the clock while the plan is active. Details: pricing, credits and usage windows.
Questions people ask
Does it watch the video?
It reads the transcript. Things only shown on screen, such as a chart with no spoken explanation, may be missing.
Can it summarize a whole channel?
Name a channel and a number of recent videos. A few at a time works best.
How do I check a point is right?
Each point carries a timestamp, so you open the video at that second.
