--- Detailed description:

▎ Turn any YouTube video into a clean, organized summary in seconds using the ▎ AI you already use. No API keys. No subscriptions. No copy-paste. ▎ ▎ YouTube AI Summarizer adds a transcript panel right next to the YouTube ▎ player. Pick a prompt, click your favorite AI, and the transcript is sent and ▎ submitted automatically. You get a summary before you'd have finished copying ▎ the transcript by hand. ▎ ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ HOW IT WORKS ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ ▎ 1. Open any YouTube video — the panel appears next to the player. ▎ 2. Pick a prompt — 14 ready-to-use prompts ship with the extension. ▎ 3. Click ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or DeepSeek — your prompt and the ▎ transcript are pasted and submitted automatically. ▎ ▎ That's it. No tabs to juggle, no manual copying. ▎ ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ KEY FEATURES ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ ▎ 🤖 Works with every major AI ▎ ChatGPT, Custom GPTs, Claude (including Opus 4.6 and Haiku 4.5), Gemini, ▎ Google AI Studio, Grok, DeepSeek, and Mistral. Use whichever account you ▎ already have — no extra cost, no API key. ▎ ▎ ⚡ Auto-paste & auto-submit ▎ On ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and DeepSeek, the prompt is typed into the ▎ input and submitted for you. Zero extra clicks after launching the model. ▎ ▎ 📚 14 ready-to-use prompts, in 7 categories ▎ Educational, Technical, Business, Reviews, Podcasts, Social / Content, and ▎ General. Match the prompt to the video — "Tech Product Review" for a phone ▎ review, "Podcast Deep Dive" for an interview, "Educational Notes Style" for a ▎ lecture, "Deep Technical Breakdown" for a conference talk. ▎ ▎ ✏️ Build your own prompt library ▎ Write, save, rename, and organize your own prompts. Tag each one with one or ▎ more categories. Filter your library by category to find what you need in ▎ seconds. ▎ ▎ 🌐 50-language summaries ▎ Get the summary in English, Arabic, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Hindi, German, ▎ French, Russian, Portuguese, Korean, Turkish, and 38 more — regardless of the ▎ source video's language. The selected language is strictly enforced, so an ▎ English video can produce a fully Arabic summary. ▎ ▎ 🎛️ Quick Settings — in the panel itself ▎ Switch prompt, language, or AI model without ever opening the settings page. ▎ Perfect for moving between different video types in one session. ▎ ▎ ⏱️ Click-to-seek transcript ▎ Jump to any moment in the video by clicking its timestamp. The transcript is ▎ fetched the same way YouTube's own "Show transcript" button works — fast, ▎ reliable, and free. ▎ ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ PRIVACY-FIRST ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ ▎ ✓ No accounts, no sign-ups, no API keys. ▎ ✓ No tracking, no analytics, no telemetry. ▎ ✓ No external servers — everything runs locally in your browser. ▎ ✓ Your prompts and preferences are stored only in your own Chrome profile. ▎ ✓ Single permission requested: storage (so your prompts persist across ▎ sessions). ▎ ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ WHO IT'S FOR ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ ▎ 📖 Students — turn lectures and tutorials into clean study notes. ▎ 💼 Founders & PMs — pull execution insights from interviews and podcasts. ▎ 🔧 Engineers — get technical breakdowns of conference talks and product ▎ launches. ▎ 📱 Tech enthusiasts — distill long product reviews into pros, cons, and ▎ verdict. ▎ 🎙️ Researchers & journalists — process hours of interview content fast. ▎ 🌍 Multilingual learners — read foreign-language video summaries in your own ▎ language. ▎ ▎ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▎ ▎ If you use YouTube to learn, this extension turns "I'll watch that one later" ▎ into "I read the summary in 30 seconds and decided it's worth my time."
