Hey Product Hunt! I'm Alex, the founder of: --- Eightify — AI summaries for Youtube --- ⭐️ 8 key takeways ⏱ ~10s to generate 🤖 OpenAI GPT-3 under the hood --- Why I Created This --- I got the idea to summarize YouTube videos when I asked my friend for the key message of a one-hour video for the third time. People often recommend videos to me, so I need to ensure they're worth watching. I created a prototype in just 2 days, and it already seemed useful to my friends. After 1.5 months, I'm delighted to present it to you with the help of Kevin! --- Sample videos to try out --- • YC “How to Get Your First Customers” https://youtu.be/hyYCn_kAngI • TED “This could be why you're depressed or anxious” https://youtu.be/MB5IX-np5fE • “Oura Ring Gen 3 In-Depth Review - Worth the Hype?” https://youtu.be/o_vTIEoRRtI --- Possible use cases --- 🙇🏻‍♀️ Educational videos (including business and startup education) 🎙 Podcasts and interviews 📱 Product reviews 📺 News reports 🛠 Tutorials I'm going to share updates and metrics on Twitter after the launch! Subscribe if you're interested: https://twitter.com/AlexKataev --- I would love to hear your feedback --- • How could this product be useful for you? • What features would you like me to release next? I'm considering "skip sponsored content” and integrating OpenAI Whisper for videos without subtitles. • How can summaries be improved?

@ax8080 could you describe step by step how doesn't work?
Alex Kataev
Maker
@_1_ras you mean how does it work? I would like to avoid a detailed description for now :) GPT-3 is the basis, I think you can get some basic results in 30 minutes using it
Levi Gleb Raskin
@ax8080 hi, maybe I asked not in right way. I know how GPT work, but I didnt get how your product provide, if I cant to put links to GPT - it doesnt accept. So could explain what I should do in your product and what to get?
Alex Kataev
Maker
@_1_ras Ouch ouch ouch sorry! You need to install Chrome Extension from this link: https://chrome.google.com/websto... Then open any Youtube video and click "Summarize" button. After installation the "Tutorial" will open automatically.

@ax8080 such a time saver!

💡 Bright idea
Great tool! I'd suggest a feature where I can prompt the summary according to my current research goals. For instance, customize it like "list top 3 most important ideas" or "list all cities that were mentioned", and so on.
Alex Kataev
Maker
@nikmcfly Wow, I love this one! I have a backlog of 100-150 ideas and this one isn't there and it's awesome! In addition to custom queries, you can make top 5 popular presets for different tasks. Thank you!
Denis Galka
Great Idea! This product can save hours of time for millions of people. And as we know, time is the most valuable resource these days. Good luck guys! Wish you to become the App of the Day 💪

@denis_galka 🤝 Much appreciated! Hope it saves you a lot of time :)
Mari Yanchauskayte
Wow, this looks really cool! Will there be any mobile support in the future? I'm always on the go and would love to be able to access Eightify from my phone.
Alex Kataev
Maker
@mari_yanchauskayte Thanks!! I'm definitely thinking of adding mobile support in the future, but right now I'm focusing on making the Chrome extension as good as possible. If the product is successful, I'll definitely jump into mobile development. Even though I've never done a mobile app before :)
Alexey Leybov
Fantastic idea, congrats on the launch! 🎉 Is there a way to share the summaries without having to copy and paste them? It would be great to be able to share it with friends one-click style.
Alex Kataev
Maker
@aleybov Thanks! Yeeah, I even started working on a one-click sharing feature. But unfortunately didn't make it before the launch, like many other things 😀 Definitely planning to add it soon, stay tuned!
Simon
This tool looks great! I embed YouTube videos on my blog that might be of interest to my readers from third-party creators and I can use this tool to provide them with a summary of what's in the video to help them to decide whether to watch it or not. I think that will enhance the experience for my readers on my blog. So thanks for creating this and I look forward to giving it a try when I have a moment.
Alex Kataev
Maker
@simon_s_j Thank you! You can give it a try already, it's live. By the way all the cached already summarized videos are free for all users. So if you summarize it once, all the summaries will be instantly available for your readers.
Simon
@ax8080 Great! And I fixed my original post which I saw on re-reading was very scrambled. Used voice-to-text and did not check! I promise I'm not drunk! 🍾 😳
Pablo Ignacio
oh wow, but what happens if I put a concert or a regular song in it?
Alex Kataev
Maker
@pablo_ignacio It will still work! I've tested it on many songs, it's funny It works fine as long as the video has subtitles Support for videos without subtitles is coming soon, too
Pablo Ignacio
@ax8080 for audiobooks should be awesome! Congratulations on such a good idea, all the best 🙌 I'll keep an eye
Dmitrii Chekhin
This is a great idea and will be very useful for busy people. Do you plan to add support for Firefox? I use Firefox as my primary browser and would love to be able to use this extension.
Alex Kataev
Maker
@dchekhin Thanks! Sorry to say Firefox has only about 3% of market share 😢 If I do add support for Firefox it won't be at the top of my priority list 😀 I apologize for that, but I'm doing my best to make sure Eightify works great on Chrome!

Cool product, tried it on Huberman's podcasts. The results look great, saved me about 3 hours:))
Alex Kataev
Maker
@shishkinii But sometimes you still want to listen to the most interesting moments, don't you? Some podcasts for information, some for fun. Thank you!!!

Finally! no need to watch a full video to get key ideas✨ Thank you for saving my time)

@alenamedvedeva Thank you! I hope you continue to use and enjoy it!

@sowmya_k_s Thanks!!!
David Douek
Great tool. I just started using it but the 8 points summary gives the summaries a good structure. Jave been using if mostly for webinars summaries
Alex Kataev
Maker
@daviddouek Thank you! Yes, I did a dynamic number of points first. Then I realized that 8 is *almost always* convenient.
Heleana Grace
Pretty cool stuff, not gonna lie! I’m a chronic 2x watcher, especially for long form content. Definitely gonna check it out. Congrats on the launch! :)
Alex Kataev

@heleana Yep, I'm in 2x club too :) 💖 Your support is amazing!

@karim_traiaia 🤗 Grateful for your support!
Mike Sverdlov
Incredible work - congratulations on launching 🎉! I'm curious if there are any plans for AI powered summarisation for audio podcasts? I listen to a lot of podcasts and it would be great to have a summary of the key points I could refer back to.
Alex Kataev
Maker
@mike_sverdlov Hi, Mike! Thanks so much! If the podcast is on YouTube, you can already use it to get a summary of the key points. I'll definitely research the demand for other platforms and see if it's something I can add in the future.

Alex (Sasha) Dolgov
I am extremely pleased with the performance of the tool, and I have found it to be extremely effective. Additionally, I have found that the team leader, Alex, is an exceptional product and technical manager who consistently achieves his objectives. We utilize otter.ai for real-time recording and summary, and I am hopeful that future updates will include real-time summary functions. Congrats @ax8080 on a launch!
Alex Kataev
Maker
@alex_dolgov Hi! Thank you for the kind words! I first thought you missed the comment when you mentioned the other service :D I'll see what they do, haven't heard of them before!
Denis Pushkin
Really cool! I've been using it for a while, and it saves me a lot of time watching the news and some long videos.

Maker
@densmr Thank you, Denis! I hope you won't be disappointed!
Igor Kulakov
Not a lot of free runs, but found it useful for my workflow
Alex Kataev
Maker
@1g0rrr I was really worried about the huge Product Hunt traffic and that I would spend all the money to pay for the OpenAI GPT, so I reduced the number of free runs on the trial. Perhaps I'll increase it when the wave of users passes! By the way, all videos that have already been handled by someone are free, and there is no charge for that. And there are more and more of them. Thanks for the feedback!
