FAQ
Is this different from YouTube's Ask feature?
YouTube Ask answers questions about a video using Gemini. YouTube AI Notes goes further: it generates flashcards and schedules spaced-repetition reviews, so the video becomes a study session rather than a one-off Q&A.
What formats can I export to?
On a Pro plan, notes export as Markdown — with Notion- and Obsidian-friendly variants — which pastes cleanly into any editor that reads Markdown. Markdown is the only export format at the moment.
How is this better than ChatGPT?
ChatGPT can summarize videos when you paste in a transcript. YouTube AI Notes works directly on the YouTube page, generates timestamped notes you can click back to, builds a flashcard deck, and tracks your spaced-repetition schedule — none of which ChatGPT does natively.
Does it work on private or unlisted videos?
Unlisted videos: yes, as long as you have the link. Private videos: no, since the extension can't access videos that aren't visible to your account.
Where do I find my license key?
After purchase, your license key is sent to your email. You can also access it through the customer portal.
How do I cancel? Do you offer refunds?
Cancel anytime via the customer portal; Pro access continues until the end of your billing period. Full refund within 14 days, no questions asked. Email support@increoscale.com.
