Description
Get the transcript of any YouTube podcast, and see everything it referenced with the moment each was said. Podcasts are packed with ideas worth exploring, but they're also easy to forget. A guest recommends a book, mentions a study, references a historical event or names a fascinating person—and by the end of the episode you've forgotten half of it. Mentionaut helps you keep everything that matters. Open any podcast on YouTube and Mentionaut adds a panel beside the video with a complete transcript and a structured list of everything mentioned throughout the episode. Every reference is timestamped, so you can jump straight back to the exact moment it was discussed, and every identified item links to a trusted external source for further reading. Instead of trying to remember what was said, you can simply browse everything the episode referenced. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Read the full transcript of any YouTube podcast. • See every book, film, person, place, historical event, scientific concept and other referenced item in one place. • Jump directly to the moment each reference was mentioned. • Search within an episode to quickly find names, topics or keywords. • Filter references by category, such as books, people, ideas or media. • Follow trusted source links to continue your research. WHY INSTALL MENTIONAUT? Most podcast tools focus on summarising conversations. Mentionaut focuses on preserving what was actually mentioned. Instead of replacing a three-hour conversation with a paragraph, it helps you discover everything worth exploring after you've finished listening. Whether you're learning, researching or simply curious, it turns podcasts into something you can search, revisit and build on. If a guest mentions five books, three researchers and a documentary, you'll find them. If they reference a historical event halfway through the episode, you can jump directly back to that exact moment. It's like having searchable notes for every podcast you watch. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO LEARN FROM PODCASTS Mentionaut is ideal if you regularly watch long-form conversations and want to remember what they contained. It's useful for: • Readers looking for recommended books. • Researchers following studies and publications. • Students collecting references. • Professionals discovering new ideas. • Anyone tired of searching for "that thing they mentioned." TRUSTED SOURCES When Mentionaut identifies a reference, it links to established public reference works — encyclopaedias, library catalogues, research indexes and specialist scientific databases. Every card names where its information came from, so you always know the source before you click. NO GUESSWORK Only curated channels. When Mentionaut can't verify something, it tells you instead of guessing. Unidentified references remain clearly marked, helping you distinguish confirmed information from unresolved mentions. NOTHING IN THE PANEL IS WRITTEN BY A MODEL Names come from what was actually said. Descriptions are copied word for word from the source linked beside them. Nothing you read is generated, paraphrased or summarised for you. PRIVACY Mentionaut works only on YouTube. You don't need an account to use the extension. If you sign in, Mentionaut keeps a record of the episodes you opened the panel on, so you can find a reference again later. You can switch this off at any time from the panel or the settings page, and you can export or delete everything it holds whenever you want. The extension only needs access to YouTube, the Mentionaut API and local storage for your settings. Privacy policy: https://mentionaut.io/privacy
