Show HN: I built AI chat for entire YouTube channels
I wanted a way to Q&A with educational channels I frequently watch e.g. personal development, coding, or building startups. But didn't want to go through the hassle of manually searching for the relevant content for the questions I had.
I wanted a tool to help me grow on YouTube by analyzing competitors to spot patterns in their content and see what makes them perform so well, and repurpose it for my channel.
And sometimes I just wanted to recall something I heard before in a podcast, but didn't want to go through the entire channel or video to get the answer.
So I built transcribr.io.
How it works: > Enter video URL or channel handle. > Video transcript(s) get extracted and processed for RAG. > Ask anything about the video or channel. > Get answers with exact video/timestamp references.
Now I can essentially chat with entire YouTube channels as individual knowledgebases in just a few clicks.
For example, I've been using it a lot to chat with the Y Combinator YouTube channel. Instead of watching hundreds of hours of startup school videos, office hours, and founder interviews, I just ask my specific questions and get back answers with exact timestamps from across their entire video library.
Try it here: https://transcribr.io $19.99/week or $49.99/mo - unlimited usage
Would love to hear about your use cases for such a tool.
