Fonction Labs is very happy to present you the first release for yt-chat!

Ever got tired wasting your life watching too long, half-empty YouTube videos? `yt-chat` is here to help.

What is yt-chat?

yt-chat is an web app which helps you summarize any YouTube video.

More than that, you can also chat and ask any question you want about the summarized video.

How it works

yt-chat is LLM-based, and built as an Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). It is very light in the sense that it does not require any typical, external RAG library such as llamaindex or langchain. Its user interface relies on chainlit.

You can either use yt-chat with your own OpenAI API key (if you wish to use gpt-3.5 for example), or you can run it locally on your machine, which allows you to leverage local models such as mistral-7b, using the powerful ollama runtime library, which is a great alternative to llamma.cpp.

Live demo

If you don’t want to bother, you can also have a look at our live demo!
(you will need to provide your personal OpenAI API key).

Enjoy the time saved summarizing long videos :)
