Overview
WatchHighlights for YouTube is a Firefox extension from FunCove for captioned lectures, tutorials and interviews on desktop YouTube. You pick a target length, and it plays the passages the AI selected inside the normal YouTube player, with timestamps you can inspect. It also offers a text summary and follow-up questions about the video, and you can switch back to the full video at any time. It works from captions only, so visual details can be missed, and it does not export a shortened file. Captions, titles and your questions are sent to FunCove's service and its AI provider.
