About this app

Watchbrief helps you get the point of a YouTube video before you decide to watch it. Share a video from the YouTube app or your browser, or paste its link, and read an AI summary with timestamps. Tap a timestamp to jump to that moment in the video.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Summaries of YouTube videos in three lengths: Short, Medium or Detailed.
• Choose the summary language: 11 languages, also when the video is in another language.
• Tap a timestamp in the summary to jump to that moment in the video.
• Ask the video: type a question and get an answer from the video's captions, with timestamps of the moments it comes from.
• Your summaries: the summaries you read are saved, and you can search them for any word. Search in the summaries saved on your phone also works offline.
• Channels: follow the channels you watch and see their new videos in one feed. With the Watchbrief plan, new videos with captions are summarized for you when the feed updates.
• An optional daily reminder, at a time you choose, to see what is new from your channels.

FREE AND THE WATCHBRIEF PLAN
Watchbrief gives you 10 free summaries a month, up to 3 a day. The Watchbrief plan allows up to 30 summaries and 100 questions a day, and summarizes new videos from the channels you follow. The yearly plan starts with a 3-day free trial for eligible users; the monthly plan has no trial. Google Play shows the price and renewal terms before you subscribe, and you can manage or cancel the subscription there.

ONE ACCOUNT
Sign in with a code sent to your e-mail or with your Google account. It is the same account as our TranscribeLab app and website. You can delete your account in the app at any time.

HOW IT WORKS
Watchbrief uses the captions a video already has; videos without captions cannot be summarized. The captions and your questions are sent to our server to write the summary and the answers. AI can make mistakes, so check important details in the video.

PRIVACY
Summaries saved on your phone are removed from it after 30 days; summaries in your account stay until you delete them or your account. Privacy policy: https://transcribelab.pro/privacy

Watchbrief is an independent app and is not affiliated with YouTube or Google.
Read summaries of YouTube videos, tap a timestamp to jump, ask about the video.
