I learn a lot from YouTube, and I wanted to build a tool that could help me retain and apply that knowledge. So, I built a second brain using AI, which helps me learn better and faster! 🚀
This is a chrome extension which automatically transcribes summarizes the content of the videos I watch. 🧠 Not just that, it can also save the markdown files for easy editing. ✨
I decided to take things a little further and added the feature for it to directly store the transcriptions and summary to Capacities as well! 📝
Is this extension free?

I've recently begun my Capacities.io adventure and was learning how to use the tools that were built for it. I was excited to try the YouTube summarizer here but did see some of the negative reviews. I tried it anyways and experienced something similar. It seemed something in the ChatGPT API had changed since the dev originally built it. So I pinged the dev and told him what was going on for me. He replied the next day and 4 days later he had a fix in place. I encourage everyone else who tried this and was disappointed to give it another chance and consider revising your review if it is now working as expected. I appreciate the young developer for his timely communication and ability to resolve the issues.
And now I am getting very rich summary text for the YouTube videos I save to Capacities using this. I'm very pleased!
No longer saves the generated transcript. Clicking "save to capacities" or "save HTML" will generate a clean transcript but the results are not saved anywhere. This used to work, but something broke it.
It does not save into capacities. It gives everything to ChatGPT and and I press save to Capacities. I get the answer from ChatGPT and the summary but it does not save into capacities anymore. It used to work!
