Boundless Insight

YouTube analysis panel with transcripts, clickable timestamps, video sync, and AI analysis.

Boundless Insight adds a transcript panel and an AI analysis tab to every YouTube watch page, and now Shorts too. It's built for creators studying other channels, researchers digging through long videos, and anyone tired of scrubbing. WHAT IT DOES Transcript panel inside YouTube's sidebar. Clickable timestamps jump the video. Chapter headers, in-page search, and one-click copy all included. Works on Shorts. The panel attaches next to the reel instead of the sidebar. Analysis tab that sends the transcript and top comments to your chosen AI model and streams the result back. Cancel any time. Floating overlay for the analysis. Pop it out so you can keep reading while you scrub the video. Local cache. Transcripts and analyses save for seven days per video. Reloading the page or collapsing the panel does not lose your work. Up to 10 saved analyses per video, with up to 3 streams running at once across all your tabs. PROVIDER CHOICE You bring the key. Pick from: Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.6 (recommended, best results) OpenAI GPT-4.1 Google Gemini (free, no credit card, great for trying it out) Top comments are now folded into the analysis automatically, no YouTube key required. Prefer to run comments on your own quota? Add a free YouTube Data API key under Advanced settings. NO ACCOUNT, NO SIGNUP, NO TRACKING The extension does not require a Boundless Creator account. There is no signup, no analytics, and no telemetry. Your transcript and prompt go from your browser straight to the AI provider whose key you pasted. The only thing that touches a Boundless server is the comment fetch: to include top comments, the extension sends just the current video ID to our comments service, with no keys and nothing that identifies you. Full privacy policy at privacy.boundlesscreator.com. SETUP Install. The options page opens automatically on first install. Paste your API key for the provider you want to use. Want free? Use a Google Gemini key, no card needed. Anthropic keys need a few dollars of credit loaded, which is separate from a Claude.ai subscription. Open any YouTube video. The panel attaches to the sidebar. Click Generate Analysis on the Analysis tab. That's it. New to API keys?

(Dave Jeltema). I run the Boundless Creator Program for educational YouTube creators. Built originally to study competitors and analyze my own videos. Released because other people keep asking for it. :) SUPPORT Bug reports and feedback go to hello@boundlesscreator.com.
