BingeRead: Read YouTube Videos as Articles, AI Summary & Chat

Description

Turn YouTube and Bilibili captions into readable transcript formats built for long videos. 📖 BingeRead turns video captions into a clean article. BingeRead is NOT another “give me 5 bullets” extension. It is a reading layer for videos. Some videos are better read than watched. Instead of watching a slow 40-minute video, you can read the transcript, generate a polished manuscript, open it in a calm Reader view, summarize the key points, and ask AI follow-up questions based on the video context. Built for lectures, interviews, podcasts, tutorials, talks, courses, and other videos that contain useful ideas but are inefficient to watch from start to finish. ✨ Key Features ✔ Structured transcript panel View available video captions beside the video in a clean, readable side panel. ✔ AI manuscript generation Turn messy timestamped captions into a polished, article-like manuscript that is easier to read, review, and save. ✔ Reader mode for long videos Open transcripts or manuscripts in a wider distraction-reduced Reader view, designed for focused long-form reading. ✔ AI summary Generate concise TL;DR summaries and key takeaways so you can understand the video faster. ✔ Chat with AI about the video Ask follow-up questions based on the transcript or manuscript, without copying text into another app. ✔ Auto mode Let BingeRead choose the best readable output for the source instead of manually tuning every setting. ✔ Copy and Markdown export Copy transcript text or download your generated manuscript as Markdown for notes, research, study, or knowledge management. ✔ Works with YouTube and Bilibili Use BingeRead on supported YouTube and Bilibili video pages when captions are available. 🚀 What makes BingeRead different? Most video AI tools focus on giving you a quick summary. That is useful, but it is not always enough. BingeRead is built for videos you actually want to study, revisit, quote, save, or think through. It does not just compress a video into a few bullets. It helps you turn the video into a readable document. Compared with typical YouTube summary extensions, BingeRead gives you: • A full transcript reading panel, not just a summary popup • A polished manuscript, not only raw timestamped captions • A dedicated Reader mode for long-form reading • Markdown export for notes and knowledge management • AI chat grounded in the video transcript or manuscript • A workflow designed for serious reading, not just quick skimming • Support for both YouTube and Bilibili 🎯 Common Use Cases • Read long YouTube videos instead of rewatching them • Turn video lectures into study notes • Summarize podcasts, interviews, and talks • Save useful video content into Markdown • Review tutorials and courses more efficiently • Ask AI questions about a video after reading it BingeRead is for people who want more than “summarize this video.” Some videos are better read than watched.
