Built a Tool to Extract Key Takeaways and Export Notes from YouTube Videos

I’ve always loved watching long-form interviews and listening to deep-dive podcasts, but one thing frustrated me—going back to find key insights was a hassle. I’d spend so much time scrubbing through videos, trying to remember where I heard a great point or an important recommendation.

So I built VideoToWisdom.com – a tool that extracts key takeaways from YouTube videos, lets you ask questions about the content, and makes it easy to organize insights for future use.

It’s been superuseful for me in cases like: • Stock analyses – Quickly pulling out key trends and investor insights • Book recommendations – Instantly listing all books mentioned in a video • Product reviews – Summarizing pros, cons, and key features without watching an hour-long review

One feature I built with power users in mind is the ability to export notes to Obsidian, making it easy to search and revisit key insights.

I’d love to hear your thoughts! Does this solve a problem you’ve had? What would make it more useful for you?
