Yes, the extension requires that the user has a chatGPT account in order for it to work. How do I make it work in Brave browser ? Disable "Prevent sites from fingerprinting me based on my language preferences" in brave://settings/shields, this is needed because the extension needs to access the session you have for chatgpt and that option is preventing us from doing that. Is this extension able to summarize videos without youtube transcript ? No, right now the video must have a transcript, but this will change in the future. Does it only work for youtube ? That is correct, but we can extend that. If you have any requests, please add it in the support tab. How can I request adding a new language ? Please request the new language from the support tab and we will try to prioritize it.
