How it works

Three steps. Under two minutes to set up.

Step 1

Connect your account

Login. We pull in your subscribed channels so you can pick which ones to get summaries for.

Step 2

New uploads get summarized

When a new video drops, our AI generates a structured summary with key points and actionable timestamps — automatically.

Step 3

Preview, then watch

Read the summary, check the timestamps, and jump straight to the sections you care about. Watch smarter, not longer.

Your YouTube viewing, supercharged

Rundown enhances how you watch — so every video is time well spent.

Structured summaries

State-of-the-art AI extracts key points, a concise overview, and a "worth watching if" recommendation for each video. Factual, actionable, no fluff.

Actionable timestamps

Know exactly where key moments happen. Jump straight to the section you care about instead of scrubbing through the whole video.

Daily digest email

One email each morning with all the new uploads from your channels, summarized. Scan it over coffee, then go watch the ones that matter.

Fully automatic

Set it up once. Rundown monitors your selected channels and generates summaries the moment a new video is published. No manual work required.

"I follow 200+ channels and used to feel buried. Now I preview everything and watch the videos that actually matter to me."

Built for people who love YouTube and want to get more from it.

Frequently asked questions

We simply request access to your subscribed channels so you can choose which ones you'd like to get summaries for. We cannot post, delete, or modify anything on your account.

Yes, Rundown is free during early access. We may introduce paid tiers later for heavy users, but there will always be a free option.

Not at all. Rundown helps you preview what's in a video so you can decide what to watch and jump to the most relevant parts. Think of it as a table of contents for long-form videos — it makes watching more intentional, not less.

Absolutely. Go to Settings and click "Disconnect Google Account." This stops all future processing immediately. You can also revoke access from your Google Account security settings at any time.
