Frequently asked
How does Distill create a summary?
Distill reads the video's transcript (captions) and uses AI to write a structured summary with sections, key points, and chapters. Short videos use a fast model; longer videos use a model with a larger context window.
Which videos work?
Public YouTube videos with captions enabled. Distill focuses on long-form content (roughly 4 minutes and up). YouTube Shorts and very short clips are not supported.
What's included in each plan?

Free account: 3 summaries/day, videos up to 60 min, saved library & history sync, offline reading for saved summaries.
