What problem does it solve?
YouTube videos often contain hours of content and transcripts can be noisy or incomplete. Generating a clear, structured Markdown digest with a concise summary, corrected proper nouns, and a learning quiz helps users capture key insights without watching the entire video.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Subtitle extraction and correction: Pulls available subtitles, prioritizes manual subtitles, and fixes named entities for consistency.
- Summarization & insights: Produces a 3-5 sentence summary plus 3-5 core insights suitable for notes or learning.
- Quiz generation (optional): Creates basic to intermediate questions to reinforce learning when the --quiz flag is used.
- Markdown export: Outputs a clean, markdown-formatted document with sections for title, metadata, summary, insights, and script.
Quick Start
Provide a YouTube URL to generate a Markdown digest with an optional quiz.
