Questions

Honest answers.

How is this different from a generic summarizer?

The output is shaped for developers. Same paste-a-link simplicity, but the summary emphasizes what your role actually needs — not a one-size-fits-all bullet list.

Is it really free?

Yes. You get 3 free summaries per month with no credit card. Pro is $5.99/mo for unlimited use and longer videos.

What can I export to?

Markdown, HTML, or plain text. Drops cleanly into Notion, Obsidian, Google Docs, your CMS, or whatever tool your workflow already uses.

Does it work on long videos?

Yes — interviews, lectures, webinars, and multi-hour recordings all work. The longer the video, the more time the summary saves you.
