I built yt-assist because I kept running into the same problem: YouTube is an incredible source of information, but getting the value out of a long video can take almost as long as watching it. Sometimes I just wanted to quickly understand the main ideas, find a specific piece of information, or ask a question about the video without scrubbing through 40 minutes of content. So I built yt-assist to make YouTube content easier to consume and interact with: 📝 Get an AI-powered summary and transcript 💬 Ask questions and chat with the video 🧠 Turn the content into a mind map 🌎 Translate videos into other languages I’m building this as a small, independent product and still have a lot to learn about what people actually want from it. I’d love to hear how you use YouTube and what would make YT Assist genuinely useful for you. Feedback is very welcome!
