The Problem: Scrubbing Through Hours of Audio

You know that moment is in there somewhere. The host mentioned that study, that book recommendation, that life-changing insight — but where exactly?

A typical podcast episode runs 2-3 hours. Finding a specific 30-second segment means endless scrubbing, rewinding, and frustration. You might spend 20 minutes hunting for something that takes 30 seconds to hear.

Transcripts help, but they're often auto-generated garbage. And even good transcripts just give you text — no way to jump straight to that exact moment in the audio.

The result? You either waste time hunting, give up and move on, or re-listen to entire episodes hoping to catch what you need.

The Solution: Ask Questions, Get Timestamps

Ask Your Video uses AI that actually understands podcast content — not just transcripts, but context, topics, and meaning.

Paste the YouTube URL of any podcast episode, ask what you're looking for, and get the exact timestamp in seconds. Then jump straight to that moment in YouTube.

No more scrubbing. No more guessing. Just answers pointing to exactly where you need to go.
