Reviews from There's An AI For That
"Absolutely amazing technology! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get a summary of a YouTube video."
- AI777, Oct 2024
"They really improved. Along with the generated video summary, they now added a generator tool that can make detailed notes with relevant timestamps … an AI chatbot to ask questions about the video … a 'search term' look-up to find when a specific term was used in the video."
