One paste turns an hour-long video into a summary, the claims that matter with timestamps, the key moments, and a clear verdict.

Start with any video

SummaryThe whole video in a few sentences.

Key claimsEvery argument, with a timestamp to jump straight to it.

Key pointsThe full beat-by-beat, every moment timestamped.

Worth-watching verdictA clear call on whether it's worth your time.

How it works

From your niche to your next idea — automatically.

01

Build your niche

Add the channels in your space by URL or @handle — competitors and benchmarks included, not just your subscriptions.

02

We watch every upload

Every new video becomes key points, timestamped claims, sources, and a worth-watching verdict — the moment it goes live.

03

Get your niche brief

One brief on what's trending, who's converging, and where they disagree — plus a searchable memory of everything your niche has said.

Features

Coverage. Synthesis. Memory.

Every channel in your niche, every upload — turned into one brief, then archived forever so nothing your niche says is ever lost.

Coverage

Every upload in your niche, already read.

The moment any channel in your niche posts, it's summarized and waiting — grouped, skimmable, nothing slipping past. Know what your space shipped in seconds, not hours.

Competitor tracking

Track channels you don't subscribe to.

Paste any competitor's URL or @handle and Rundown starts covering them — no need to follow them on YouTube. Watch your whole space, not just your feed.

Memory

Ask your niche anything.

"Who covered AI agents in March, and what did they claim?" Search every summary across your niche — semantic and keyword — with the exact moments pulled to the top.

Memory

Your niche's archive, forever.

Every summary is kept — tagged, searchable, and organized, even after you stop tracking a channel. Your niche's history compounds instead of disappearing after one watch.

Synthesis

Your niche brief. Every morning.

Not 30 summaries — one brief. What's trending across your niche, who's converging on the same idea, and where they disagree. Read it in two minutes over coffee — no app required.

How creators use it · illustrative

Built for the people planning the next video.

"Before I plan a video, I read my niche brief and know exactly what's already been covered this week — and what nobody's touched yet."

The tech reviewer

"I track 25 competitors I'm not even subscribed to. When three of them converge on a topic, that's my signal to move."

The finance creator

"My editor searches the archive for 'who said what, when' instead of re-watching ten hours of footage. It's our research desk."

The faceless-channel team

Example workflows, not customer quotes — we're onboarding our first creators now.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly do you access on my Google account?

We request read-only access to one thing: your YouTube channel subscriptions, so you can pick which ones to summarise. The exact Google permission scope is youtube.readonly.

We cannot post videos or comments, modify your subscriptions or playlists, see your watch history, or access any other Google service. Gmail, Drive, Calendar, and Photos are all off-limits to us.

Can I disconnect my account?

Yes, in one click. Inside Rundown, go to Settings and click "Disconnect Google Account." This stops all future processing immediately and deletes our access tokens. You can also revoke access at any time from your Google Account security page. That path doesn't require visiting Rundown at all.
