YouTube summaries with clickable timestamps
Click to switch summarizer Summarizer
Paste a YouTube link and Samuraize carves it into a short, bite-sized document of its key points — no need to watch the whole thing.
A summary without timestamps makes you take its word for it. Samuraize puts a ▶ m:ss chip on every section; click it and the video opens at that second. Use the summary to decide what to watch, then watch exactly that. Paste a link above to try it - three summaries are free without an account, and a free account gives you 20 Samurai Coins a month (1 coin per 10 minutes of video).
How the timestamps are made
The transcript is fetched with timing information, and the summary is written against it - each section records the moment its content begins. That's why the chips are accurate to the sentence, not guessed from the video length.
Timestamps in exports too
Copy or export to Markdown and the timestamps come along as links (youtube.com/watch?v=…&t=…), so notes pasted into Notion or Obsidian still jump to the right moment.
Ask, with citations
Ask a question about a saved video and the answer cites [m:ss] timestamps, so you can check the claim against the source in one click.
Frequently asked
- Do timestamps work on Shorts and live streams?
- Yes, on anything with a transcript, including replays of live streams.
- Can I turn them off?
- They're small chips beside each heading; if you export as TXT they're plain [m:ss] markers you can strip.
