YouTube key points FAQ
How are key points different from an AI summary?
Key points focus on individual ideas and useful specifics as bullet points. A summary gives a broader overview. Choose key points when you want separate takeaways to review, and a summary when you need the overall picture.
Which YouTube videos can I use?
Use public videos with accessible existing subtitles, including auto-generated captions. Videos without captions are not supported. Private, removed or restricted videos may be unavailable. This tool does not transcribe audio or accept uploads. AI generation supports videos up to 1 hour. Longer videos are not supported yet; subtitle reading and downloads remain available.
Do I need to sign in, and how do AI credits work?
Sign in with Google to receive 10 free AI credits daily. Each generation uses one credit. The allowance resets at midnight in Asia/Shanghai; unused credits do not carry over. If a generation task ultimately fails, its credit is returned.
Which subtitle and output languages can I choose?
Select from the subtitle tracks available for the video. Generated key points can be written in English or Simplified Chinese. This does not translate the original subtitle downloads.
Can I copy and save the generated key points?
Yes. Copy the generated text into your notes or editor. Your generated results are saved in your account’s private library so you can revisit and copy them later.
How accurate are the key points?
The AI uses the selected subtitle track. Caption errors, missing context and model mistakes can affect the result. Key points may omit details; check important facts, names and quotes against the original video.
