Hey Product Hunt 👋, we're back with the 2.0 for our little side project to add transcripts to your YouTube videos fast n easy. In the last 3 months (on the side) we've managed to reduce the flow from our clunky 1.0 from this: 1. Remember to go to our website 2. Click around 5-6 times 3. Visit 2 different websites (YouTube and ours) to just: 1. One-click in YouTube studio 😳 ► How? ------------------------------------------- We built a chrome extension that inserts a button in YouTube Studio directly where all the other options are to add subtitles ► Why? ------------------------------------------- In short: Retention and carving out our USP Long story 👇 Make it super easy for recurring customers to get their job done efficiently (we have a handful of customers that come back multiple times per week, despite our old solution being super clunky) Since YT Transcriber is a niche solution that's just for YouTube videos, we've been able to provide a feature set that's tightly integrated with YouTube. This specificity gives us an advantage over the competition which is generally aiming at a broader market. However, through the niche approach, we are able to target people more effectively as well as provide a more refined product. ► What have we learned? ------------------------------------------- Building Chrome extensions is a bi*ch, especially interacting between the different parts of the app that run either within the context of the website you're trying to add elements to (Content script) or the main UI elements of your app (Popup). Now we had close to zero experience building a chrome extension before and I'd definitely either be sure to: Know what I'm doing or be very certain that the extra effort is worth it. As a comparison it took us: 1 day to build the initial MVP on Web 3 months (part-time) to build out the chrome extension Now granted a lot of the time was also spent integrating Google login and YouTube API but those were known time-drags (deep integrations are usually costly in terms of time) we definitely underestimated the amount of work that goes into the extension itself. ► Our Next 5 moves ------------------------------------------- 1. Launch 2.0 on Product Hunt ✅ 2. Ramp up SEO 3. Figure out subscription pricing 4. Sell-out 5. Bro down 6. Insert Southpark meme ► We Need YOU 🤜 💥 🤛 ---------------------------------------------- Give us your thoughts and feedback! We just wanna learn, iterate and get better.

Great product BUT never-never use trademarks in your domain name. If this goes big, YouTube will knock you the door. (ex-lawyer here.)
