I don't get it. nothing on the landing page "works"? what's going on here?
What I'd like from a site like this is to be quizzed on the videos I watch, right after watching and maybe a few days after. I think that would have a large effect on learning.
1. It would be nice if there was a short video, gif, or webm showing TubePen working. I see the image examples and they are nice, but seeing it "in motion" would be a nice reassurance before signing up. 2. I use brave browser on mobile to watch youtube, so videos automatically set to m.youtube.com/whatever. In order for me to try TubePem on mobile I had to drop the leading "m" subdomain and switch youtube to TubePen.…
On mobile isn't possible to make new selections yet, but you can still open a video pasting the url on the box in the home page, that should work with "m." url also.
Looks cool, love work in this direction. I wonder how learning rates w this would compare to taking notes on paper like in a traditional lecture, which some studies show improves learning [0]. [0]: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-writing-by-ha...
1. Make it so we can just paste the video URL instead of editing it ourselves. Way easier. 2. Let people try it without logging in first. Login walls are hurt conversions!
Seriously, though, this has so much potential. Can’t wait to see where it goes!
To solve the server IP sometimes being blocked by YouTube, the app fetches the transcripts in the browser.
Love the concept—TubePen is super cool! A couple of quick thoughts: 1. Make it so we can just paste the video URL instead of editing it ourselves. Way easier. 2. Let people try it without logging in first. Login walls are hurt conversions! Seriously, though, this has so much potential. Can’t wait to see where it goes!
I have been tought so much about the login wall, I look to what other solo developers are doing and they use to set a paywal, I left a free trial, but I need some compromise because I have no resources to let people abuse. I now it difficult conversions, but is the best I can do right now. Also even without trial it's a cheap service.
Since the HN launch I added phone support and a "Advanced" LLM plan with auto summarization of videos. I'm working to add a quiz mode tho this plan trying to offer a more complete solution.
Suggestions are welcome!
nice!-> how well does the url replacement work across different browsers and devices?
All browsers I have been used had an editable url field, this should be easy. On desktop by double-clicking the word youtube it should select it an you can just write there.
