Frequently Asked Questions
How does this work?
We grab the captions from any YouTube video and use AI to create a smart summary of the key points. Just paste the video link and we'll do the rest.
Does this work with any YouTube video?
Yep! As long as the video has captions, it'll work. Whether it's a lecture, tutorial, or just a regular video, you can get a summary of it.
What can I do with my summary?
Copy it to share with others, save it for reference, or use it to quickly understand what the video was about without watching the whole thing.
Will my summary be saved?
Your summary is generated fresh each time, but you can easily copy it to save wherever you want. No need to worry about losing it.
How accurate are the summaries?
Our AI creates pretty accurate summaries that capture the main points and key ideas. The quality depends on how clear the video's audio and captions are.
Is this free?
Yes! No signup needed, no hidden costs, and no limits on how many videos you can summarize. Just paste a YouTube link and get your summary.
What if a YouTube video doesn't have captions?
If a video doesn't have captions, we can't create a summary for it. We'll let you know right away if that's the case, and you can try a different video.
How long does it take to generate a summary?
Usually just a few seconds! The time depends on how long the video is, but most summaries are ready in under 30 seconds.
Can I get summaries in different languages?
Yes! We try to get summaries in your language first, but if the video only has captions in the original language, you can switch between available languages.
How does the AI work?
We use Chrome's built-in Gemini AI that runs completely on your computer. This means your data stays private and never gets sent to any servers. The AI works offline once it's set up.
Why don't I see the AI summary button?
The AI button only appears if your browser supports it. You need Chrome 138+ or Edge 4.49.0+. If you don't see it, try updating your browser or check our troubleshooting guide.
What happens when I use AI for the first time?
Chrome will download a large AI model (about 22GB) to your computer. This can take 5-30 minutes depending on your internet speed. Keep your browser open during the download. You might need to restart Chrome after it's done.
What if the AI model won't download or work?
Try enabling Chrome AI flags in chrome://flags/ or check if you have enough storage space (22GB). Some systems need special settings. If it still doesn't work, try using Microsoft Edge instead, which has its own AI model.
