LLMs can't watch videos. Video2Skill turns any video — or a YouTube link — into a clean skill.md: timestamped transcript, on-screen text (OCR) and visual analysis. Paste it into ChatGPT or Claude for accurate, citable answers. Pay as you go, free credits to start.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
LLMs are great with text, but they can't actually watch a video. If you've ever tried to get ChatGPT to help with a tutorial, a demo or a recorded call, you know the pain: paste a transcript and it misses everything on screen — or it just makes things up.
I built Video2Skill to fix that. Drop a video (or paste a YouTube link) and it produces a clean skill.md: a timestamped transcript, the on-screen text (OCR), and a visual analysis of each key moment — all grounded in what's actually shown, not hallucinated. Paste that into ChatGPT/Claude and finally get accurate, citable answers.
• Upload a file or paste a YouTube link
• Full skill.md, or a cheaper transcript-only export
• Pay as you go, free credits to try
Would love your feedback — what videos would you throw at it, and what output would make it more useful? I'll be here all day answering 🙌

One thing that would make this even more useful for me: let me highlight a specific timestamp range before generating the skill.md, so the output focuses only on the section I actually care about. Right now it processes the whole video which is great for context, but when I just need steps 4 through 7 from a 30 minute tutorial it feels like overkill. A simple shift-click to mark start and end would be perfect.

@edwardscissorhands You're right, that would indeed be very useful; I'll implement that option!

The YouTube link to transcript thing worked on a long tutorial I threw at it. Timestamp references actually came in handy when I pasted the output into Claude.

finally a way to actually use youtube tutorials with llms. tried it on a coding walkthrough and the timestamped transcript made it way easier to ask follow up questions without losing context.
