I built an AI tool to summarize YouTube videos and save time

The author has developed a Chrome extension called TLDW (Too Long; Didn't Watch) that uses AI to summarize YouTube videos into concise bullet points. This tool has improved the author's YouTube content consumption by saving time spent on watching entire videos and skipping through chapters. The extension uses AI-powered summaries with LLAMA3, allows users to ask the AI for detailed explanations on specific points, and is free for up to 5 videos per day. Unlimited access is available for €1.90/month, and the extension does not collect personal data, with secure payments made via Stripe.

The author initially created TLDW to address personal needs but believes it could be beneficial to others overwhelmed by the volume of content on YouTube. The author invites feedback and suggestions for further improvement of the tool. The extension can be found on the Chrome Web Store, and an overview is available on YouTube.
