Shorts Composer

Clip, caption & highlight YouTube videos with Q/E keys

What it does

I kept losing track of good moments while researching YouTube videos for Shorts. Built this to fix my own workflow. Shorts Composer is a Chrome side panel that sits next to YouTube: 🎬 Q/E keys to mark clip in/out points + add notes 🕒 Auto-collects comment timestamps ("3:42 🔥" ones) 📝 Extracts subtitles as TXT or SRT 💾 Export as JSON, TXT, or SRT No account, no server, no tracking. v0.1 — built for myself, sharing in case it helps others.

    YouTube Summaries Using GPT2023 · eightify.app · ▲147

    Hi, I'm Alex. I created Eightify to take my mind off things during a weekend, but I was surprised that my friends were genuinely interested in it. I kept going, and now it's been nine weeks since I started. I got the idea to summarize videos when my friend sent me a lengthy video again. This happens to me often; the video title is so enticing, and then it turns out to be nothing. I had been working with GPT for 6 months by the time, so everything looked like a nail to me. It's a Chrome extension, and I'm offering 5 free tries for videos under an hour. After that, you have to buy a package.…

    Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
