Description
YTSummary is a YouTube video summarizer built on ChatGPT that helps users grasp the essence of a video quickly and save time. It offers three summary modes: Outline mode generates a brief summary with key highlights and detailed summaries; Mind Map mode creates a visual, hierarchical representation of the summary; and Segment mode produces detailed summaries divided into timestamped segments aligned with YouTube chapters, key moments, or fixed intervals.
The tool handles long videos, supports multiple languages, and lets users export summaries as images or PDFs and manage summary history in a dashboard. Summaries can also be shared with others. Users can work either through the website by pasting a YouTube link, or via a Chrome extension while watching videos.
YTSummary offers a free plan with 10 total summary credits for videos under 30 minutes, plus Basic and Pro plans that raise limits — up to 200 summaries per month for videos under 4 hours on Basic, and unlimited summaries of any length on Pro. Payment is handled through Paddle as the merchant of record, supporting major cards and PayPal.
