About No Time
No Time turns long YouTube videos into a few sentences you can actually read.
It uses YouTube's own transcripts as the source, then sends them to the AI provider of your choice — Anthropic Claude or OpenAI — for summarization. You bring your own API key. The extension never routes your data through any server we control.
WHAT YOU GET FOR EVERY VIDEO
• TL;DR — one or two sentences with the actual takeaway
• Key points — 3 to 7 short, concrete insights, no filler
• "Worth watching?" — a one-line verdict
HOW IT WORKS
1. Open a YouTube video.
2. Click the No Time icon.
3. Hit Summarize. The summary appears in the popup in a few seconds.
PRIVACY-FIRST
• Your API key stays in chrome.storage.local on your own machine.
• Transcripts are sent directly from your browser to your chosen provider — never through a third-party server.
• No analytics. No telemetry. No tracking.
REQUIREMENTS
• An Anthropic or OpenAI API key (paste it into the setup screen when you first open the extension).
CUSTOMIZATION
• Switch provider any time from Settings.
• Override the model (defaults: claude-haiku-4-5 and gpt-4o-mini).
For videos that talk too much.
