Instructions:

  • Click the extension icon and enter your API key

Known issues:

  • Token counter is still slightly off (in general the estimate is higher than the actual usage)
  • Fails sometimes, if the response from the API isn't perfectly formed
  • Does not work with extremely long videos due to token limits

Pretty amazing extension, it saves me tons of time I would waste with watching bad or irrelevant YT content, kudos for an amazing product!
by Lazar Jovanovic, 2024-10-16

I was surprised how good this extension is - including timestamps, usefulness score (spamminess, trust score (e.g. "The host speaks from personal experience and provides detailed context for his statements. He also admits when he's uncertain about information" - I know the host and it describes him to a T), value score (how relevant the video is based on the persona you entered, e.g. "Solopreneur in the AI space"). Great job!
