YouTube Summary on Discord
Automatically posts new YouTube videos to Discord with short AI-generated summaries (from captions/transcripts).
Trusted by
Built on proven transcript + caption workflows (YouTube captions, Panopto/Kaltura style analytics) and LLM summarization patterns used in higher-ed content pipelines.
Success Story
Keele University adopted Panopto and saw monthly views rise from 12,000 → 54,000 while producing ~25,000 hours of content in a year.

Problem
Long educational videos (lectures, tutorials) are hard for busy learners to scan. Teachers and community managers spend time manually summarizing or spotlighting key moments — a slow process that reduces content re-use and engagement.
Solution
This agent automates detection → transcript extraction → AI summarization → scheduled Discord posting. It produces short, accurate summaries and timecode highlights so learners quickly decide what to watch and teachers can share key insights without manual effort.
Result
Faster content discovery, higher Discord engagement, reduced manual summary time, and better accessibility via transcripts and short summaries. Teachers and moderators spend less time triaging content and more time teaching.
Use Cases
This agent watches one or more YouTube channels (RSS or API), pulls new video metadata and captions/transcripts, generates an AI summary (short paragraph + 3-bullet TL;DR) using an LLM prompt tuned for clarity and educational context, and publishes a formatted Discord message containing: thumbnail, short summary, 3 bullets, timecodes to key moments, and optional translation of the summary. It can also tag viewers (roles), add classroom links, or trigger a human-review workflow (via n8n/Make.com) if the automated checks flag quality or sensitive content. The agent stores transcripts, summaries, and posting logs in MongoDB for later review and analytics. This fits educators, learning communities, course teams, and marketing/content studios who want to surface long-form video content as bite-sized, actionable lessons in a Discord community.
