As someone who can’t stand the modern trend away from text and towards video, I can’t praise this idea enough. The number of circumstances where a video is better than text with some clarifying pictures is quite small

I haven't tried this yet but it would be helpful if each step included a link to the spot in the video where that step is shown, so that in case you need it it's easy to find.
That just means you have to worry about voice recognition errors instead.
Super interesting. I recently went down the DIY rabbit hole for solar, electricity, etc. I tested out https://stepify.tech/video/O8eVxRVwlnw and looks decent: 1. It took about ~45 seconds for the page to load once I put the URL in. You should have a loader on a page showing that the website is "doing something" while the AI transcribes. 2. It would be great to sync the chapters in the YT video with the guide details.…
The guides are generated from pure transcript so you don't have to worry about it being AI. That just means you have to worry about voice recognition errors instead.
Edit: although in this instance the LLM pretty heavily editorialises the transcript anyway...
Is there a way to request items that were submit get removed? Can you provide a way to contact you such as an email address? There wasn't one posted on your site.
It's just a suggestion, I mean right now anyone can submit anyone's videos without their consent or ownership verification. How do you plan to handle that? I'm sure there will be folks out there who wouldn't feel comfortable that a site will be scraping their video content attempting to generate a large network of pages on 1 domain with loads of SEO terms. It provides a conflict of interest with the original creators. This conflict of interest is around SEO competition, reducing views from original creators and then there's the other can of worms of any future plans to monetize your site through subscriptions, paid features or ads where you'd be profiting from the content of others without their consent.
I posted one of my videos just to see what would happen and then it created a permanently hosted page on your domain with an AI generated recap of the video. I didn't realize that was going to happen. There was no warning, label of how it works, TOS that I agreed to or options available to make it private and there's no option to delete it. I put in the URL, hit submit and that was it.
It's nothing personal and I hope you don't see this as a deterrent. I'm all for building cool things and generally openly share almost everything for free (I've been blogging and making videos for ~9 years and don't have a single ad on anything I ever posted) but the idea of having inaccurate AI generated content does rub me the wrong way.

You mentioned it's generated from pure transcripts but most of the phrases used aren't what was mentioned in the video. It looks like a paraphrased version of it but it's also missing all of the details that would allow someone to follow along.
Directly under the video on the page it says "This response is AI generated". One one hand you say it's not AI generated but then on the other hand it is.
Love how the AI turned “drop a comment below” into a project step: “Seek feedback from stakeholders or viewers by encouraging questions and comments for further engagement.” This is from a bathroom remodel video.
Sorry for that, I'm looking into it. The problem is for videos that have no transcript. Maybe it's because i'm feeding it the description of the video for now. I'll find some workaround for this. Thanks!
Heh, it did more or less what I was hoping it would for the song ‘How To Be A Heartbreaker’: https://stepify.tech/video/vKNcuTWzTVw
Whoever did this is a prankster and hilarious: https://stepify.tech/video/co7KgV2edvI I hope that didn’t wreck your compute costs
