The problem it solves

Researching what's working for competitors on YouTube and turning it into your own content plan takes hours of watching videos and writing notes. You want fresh scripts and titles without redoing that manual work every time.

Who it fits

Content creators, marketers, and video strategists who study competitor videos to plan their own content.

How it works

  1. A new video link is added to your list or sent through a request
  2. The system pulls the video's full transcript and details
  3. AI turns the transcript into a new script, titles, tags, and thumbnail concepts
  4. The finished content assets are saved to Google Sheets or returned instantly
What you get

Content ideas ready before you plan your next video

You get a new script, titles, tags, and thumbnail concepts generated from any competitor video you point it at.

What you get

A set of ready-to-use content assets: a script, titles, tags, and thumbnail ideas, saved in Google Sheets.

What you need

A Google Sheets account and an OpenRouter API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
