YakovskiQ: Can TinyCommand monitor YouTube channels and email AI summaries of new video transcripts?
Can TinyCommand automate this workflow?
* I provide a YouTube channel URL or RSS feed
* TinyCommand detects when a new video is published
* It gets the video transcript/captions
* AI creates a short summary with key points
* The summary is automatically sent to me by email
Also, if this is possible, can it monitor multiple YouTube channels and send a separate email summary for each new video?

May 11, 2026A: Yes, this is very much doable with TinyCommand, and it’s actually a solid use case.
You can set up a workflow like this:
* Use a YouTube channel RSS feed or polling logic as the trigger, detect when a new video is published
* Fetch the video details and transcript, either via available APIs or transcript services
* Pass the transcript into an AI step to generate a summary with key points
* Send the output via email automatically
This entire flow can run on autopilot once set up.
Each workflow supports only one trigger, so if you want to monitor multiple YouTube channels or RSS feeds, you will need to create separate copies of the same workflow, one per channel or feed.
You can also enhance it further:
* Add filters, for example only summarize videos above a certain length
* Customize summary format, short bullets, detailed notes, etc.
* Store summaries in a table or doc for later reference
So yes, end to end, this is a very clean and achievable automation with TinyCommand 👍
