FAQ

Good questions.

Is the YouTube summarizer free?

Yes — you can summarize videos for free, no card required. Summaries are generated once and saved to your library.

Does it work on long videos?

Yes. It reads the full transcript, so hour-long podcasts, lectures and webinars summarize just as well as short clips.

Do I need to download the video?

No. Paste a YouTube link and MyShorts handles the rest — nothing to upload or install.

Are there timestamps?

Yes — summaries include section timestamps so you can jump to the exact moment in the original video.

How accurate is the summary?

It's generated from the actual transcript, so it reflects what was said. Always give AI output a quick review before relying on it.
