Step-by-Step: Use a YouTube Link

  1. Tap “Paste YouTube Link”

    ​

  2. Paste the video URL
    You’ll see an input field. Copy the full YouTube link from your browser or app, and paste it here.
    Make sure it’s a public or unlisted video (private ones won’t work).

  3. Start importing
    Tap Continue after pasting the link. The app will extract the audio and begin processing.

  4. Let the app work
    It will transcribe the audio, generate a summary, and extract action items and key data. Just sit tight—processing time depends on the video length.
