Thank you! I'm getting the transcript through an API and feeding it to the GPT. For now, the fallback function for no captions is just to make something out of the description of the video. I really appreciate the suggestion, i'll experiment around using Whisper. Regarding open source or business. I don't really know about that yet. Maybe, i'll lean towards the business side to cover the costs and see where this goes. And sorry for the downtime! API credits ran out. It should be fixed by now

I will. Could you suggest a place where it would be more obvious?

This one really made me laugh. Good thing the website takes in only transcript to produce the response. This video had none, otherwise it would've been a problem hah.

Yeah, you just said what was on my mind since I launched it. The code I wrote is for tutorial videos. Non-tutorial video responses are just gibberish. The representative videos on the top is a great idea. I'll look into it.

Can you tell me more about the video you entered? Did it have a transcript? How many hours long was it?

Thank you! Great suggestion. I'll try adding timecodes ASAP.

Sorry for that, I'm looking into it. The problem is for videos that have no transcript. Maybe it's because i'm feeding it the description of the video for now. I'll find some workaround for this. Thanks!
