Y2Doc: Turn Long YouTube Lectures into Structured Notes Instantly

I was frustrated trying to learn from long YouTube videos—especially deep-dive tech talks and interviews. Every session felt like a workout: pause, rewind, take notes, lose track, repeat.
Most tools I tried just dumped transcripts or gave generic summaries. Not helpful when you actually want to learn.
So I built Y2Doc:
Drop in any YouTube link (up to 4 hours), and it gives you a clean, structured document with:
•Headings based on content flow
•Timestamps you can click to revisit parts
•Output styles: full content, summary, email format, and more
It's free to use. If you like learning through reading—but rely on video content—this might save you a lot of time.
Happy to get feedback or suggestions from anyone who gives it a shot.
