In their own words
yTeaser
yTeaser takes a YouTube link and returns an AI summary with three extracted takeaways, each under 100 characters. It detects the video’s language, summarizes in that language, and translates non-English videos into English. Optional sentiment analysis grades reactions in top comments from A+ to F. The web app and Chrome extension provide access; the extension adds a summary button to YouTube thumbnails and shows results inline. A REST API offers video summarization and English translation endpoints, rate limited to 20 and 30 requests per minute respectively. The Slack bot detects YouTube links and replies in message threads, although the site says it is awaiting Slack review and approval. The free plan costs nothing and allows 10 summaries per day without an account. Pro costs $1.99 a month or $9.90 a year, with 50 summaries per day and priority support. yTeaser accepts YouTube links, not uploads. Summaries may fail for private, age-restricted, removed, or very short videos.
