Question 1

What does Cuelio do?

Accepted Answer

Cuelio helps you search YouTube transcripts and comments, ask cuelioAI questions about videos, and jump to exact moments from a Chrome side panel.

Question 2

How do I search a YouTube transcript for a word or phrase?

Accepted Answer

Open a captioned YouTube video, then use Cuelio's transcript search to look for a keyword, phrase, quote, product name, or claim. Matches stay grouped with nearby context so you can tell which line matters before you click.

Question 3

Can I find an exact quote in a YouTube video without scrubbing the timeline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cuelio is designed for exact-line retrieval: search the transcript, inspect the surrounding wording, and jump back to the exact timestamp when you find the right quote.

Question 4

Can I search YouTube comments without endless scrolling?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cuelio includes comment search so you can look for questions, complaints, recommendations, and product mentions across the thread much faster than scrolling by hand.

Question 5

Can I ask AI questions about a YouTube video and keep sources?

Accepted Answer

Yes. cuelioAI answers are meant to stay grounded in the active transcript, with cited time ranges so you can verify the answer against the video.

Question 6

Is Cuelio a YouTube transcript summarizer with timestamps?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but summary is not the whole product. Cuelio can generate transcript-based summaries and chapter-style recaps while keeping the workflow tied to visible transcript lines and clickable timestamps.

Question 7

Does it work without captions?

Accepted Answer

The main workflow depends on captions or transcript tracks being available for the YouTube video.

Question 8

Does Cuelio summarize every video automatically?

Accepted Answer

No. Summary and cuelioAI answer actions are user-started, so transcript text is not sent to an AI provider without your action.

Question 9

Where are saved videos and settings stored?

Accepted Answer

The product is designed for local browser storage first, including settings, cached transcript state, saved videos, and history.

Question 10

Can I jump to the exact part of a video?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Transcript rows, search results, citations, and answer sources are designed around clickable timecodes, so Cuelio also works like a YouTube timestamp finder.

Question 11

Can I export transcript notes or chapter drafts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cuelio is built to help you move transcript snippets, quotes, notes, chapter outlines, and summary material into your own research or writing workflow.

Question 12

Who is Cuelio for?

Accepted Answer

Students, researchers, creators, language learners, product teams, and anyone who needs to turn long videos into searchable source material.
