Everything you need, from one link.

Summaries with timestamps

Key points you can skim, mapped back to the video.

Rewrite, keep and export — the notes are yours.

Grounded Q&A

Ask the video anything; answers cite the timestamp.

Makes Shorts too

Turn the best moments into face-aware 9:16 clips.

An all-in-one NoteGPT alternative

NoteGPT is known for AI notes and summaries from YouTube videos, often via an extension. MyShorts is a web-based alternative that does the same core job from a pasted link — structured summaries with timestamps and clean, editable notes built from the full transcript — with nothing to install. Because it processes the entire transcript, long lectures, tutorials and podcasts turn into organised notes just as easily as short videos, and you can rewrite, trim or add to them before exporting so the notes end up in your own voice.

Notes, answers and clips from one link

The reason to consolidate on MyShorts is what sits alongside the notes. The same YouTube link also gives you grounded Q&A that answers from the transcript with a timestamp, a searchable transcript you can download as SRT, and face-aware 9:16 Shorts cut from the strongest moments. So a single video becomes revision notes, quick answers and publishable clips — one tool for studying and creating, instead of a separate app for each.
