About

What is TimeCue?

TimeCue is a powerful tool designed to transform how users interact with YouTube content. It enables instant searching within YouTube videos to pinpoint exact moments, allowing users to build a comprehensive, searchable video knowledge base. A core feature is its ability to search across multiple saved videos simultaneously, eliminating the need to remember which video contained specific information. TimeCue also offers a unique 'Follow Mode' for tutorials, which uses AI to extract steps and automatically pauses the video, facilitating hands-free learning for activities like cooking, coding, or DIY projects. The tool is available as a free Chrome extension or can be used directly on its website, providing flexibility for users to manage and search their video library.

FAQs

How is TimeCue different from YouTube's native search?

YouTube's search is limited to titles and descriptions. TimeCue, however, searches the actual spoken content across all your saved videos, allowing you to find exact moments and jump directly to them, providing a much deeper search capability.

Do I need to install the Chrome extension to use TimeCue?

No, the Chrome extension is optional. You can add videos to your library and search them directly on the TimeCue website. The extension is only necessary if you wish to use TimeCue's features directly on the YouTube platform.

What is 'Follow Mode' and how does it work?

Follow Mode is designed for tutorials. It uses AI to extract each step from a video and automatically pauses the video after each step. This allows for hands-free learning at your own pace, perfect for cooking, coding, or DIY projects.

How is the video quota calculated for TimeCue plans?

The video quota, referred to as 'Library capacity', is calculated in hours per month. For example, the Free plan offers 3 hours of library capacity, while the Pro plan provides 50 hours, determining how much video content you can add and search across.
