Turns YouTube videos into short AI summaries you can read, search, and export instead of watching.
Summarify is an iOS, Mac, and Chrome extension app from Digital Tools Ltd in New Zealand that turns YouTube videos into text summaries. It hooks into the YouTube share sheet, pulls the transcript, and rewrites it as bullet points, a detailed recap, or a chapter-by-chapter breakdown, with timestamps linking back to the original moment in the video. It also exports transcripts and summaries as PDF, Markdown, or plain text, and tracks how many hours of watch time the summaries have saved. The app is listed as free on the App Store; no separate paid tier is disclosed on the marketing site.

Use tool ↗Good for turning long YouTube videos into a quick skim before deciding whether to watch, and the timestamp links make it easy to jump back into the source video. The catch is it depends entirely on YouTube's own captions, so videos without decent transcripts get thin summaries.
Watch out: The marketing site never shows a pricing page, so budget for the possibility of in-app purchases the App Store listing doesn't spell out.
