Know what every creator in your niche posted, before you start scripting

Rundown monitors the YouTube channels you follow and extracts each upload into the shape that matches its content. A competitor's review becomes pros, cons and a spec table. A trend explainer becomes concepts and key takeaways. Track your niche, spot trends early, and never be the last to know.

Your subscription feed can't keep up with your niche

You follow 30, 50, maybe 100+ channels. Competitors, collaborators, adjacent creators, trend-setters in your space. YouTube's subscription feed buries half of it. By the time you see a video, it's already been reacted to by everyone else.

You could spend two hours a day manually checking channels, or you could let most of it slip by and hope you catch the important stuff. Neither option is great when your content depends on being current.

A research engine for the videos you'd never have time to watch

Automatic competitor tracking

Add every channel in your niche. When they upload, Rundown summarises it overnight. You wake up to a digest showing exactly what everyone posted, with key points and timestamps. No more manually checking 40 channels.

Spot trends before they peak

When three creators in your space all cover the same topic in one week, you'll see it in your digest. The pattern becomes obvious when all the summaries are in one place. Jump on trends early instead of reacting late.

Searchable archive of your niche

Every summary is saved permanently. Months from now, search "what did [competitor] say about [topic]" and find it instantly. When you're scripting a video, your research library is already built.

The 90-second research session

It's Tuesday morning. You open your Rundown digest over coffee. Three tech channels you track all posted about the same new phone yesterday.

One had an exclusive hands-on. One did a spec comparison. One did a hot take. You scanned all three summaries in 90 seconds. You now know the angles everyone has already taken, and you can script something that adds a perspective none of them covered.

You didn't watch a single video yet, but you already know exactly what's worth watching and what's been said.

A glimpse of tomorrow's email

This is what a typical morning could look like for a creator in the tech-review space.

Common questions from creators

Rundown automatically monitors the YouTube channels in your niche and sends you a daily email digest with AI summaries. You see what every competitor and collaborator posted yesterday, with key points and timestamps, without manually checking dozens of channels.

Yes. Every summary is permanently archived in a searchable knowledge base. Search by topic, creator, or keyword to find what's been covered in your niche over the past weeks or months. It's like having a research assistant who watches everything for you.
