You watch an incredible video on your TV at night. Full of insights, strategies, actionable advice. You think, "I should remember this." But by morning, it's already fading.
Here's the problem: YouTube doesn't help you remember. It helps you watch more.
Most "learning tools" require you to manually capture every insight—pause the video, take notes, create flashcards. That's not learning. That's work. And when you're watching on your TV, phone, or tablet, it's nearly impossible.
What if YouTube remembered for you?
The Zero-Effort Learning Tool
TAGiT's Daily Digest solves a problem that's been bugging me since I started building this product: passive content consumption creates zero lasting knowledge.
You can watch 100 hours of educational YouTube per month and retain almost nothing. Not because the content isn't valuable. Because human memory doesn't work that way.
Daily Digest changes the equation. Here's how:
1. Watch YouTube Anywhere
TV, phone, tablet, desktop, doesn't matter. Daily Digest works across every device because it analyzes your YouTube watch history, not what you manually save.
2. Go to Sleep
No action required. No extensions to remember. No "save this video" workflows. Just watch and sleep.
3. Wake Up to AI-Generated Insights
Every morning, you get an email with:
- •AI summaries of every video you watched
- •Automatically generated flashcards
- •Key takeaways and actionable insights
- •Book and resource recommendations
- •Links to chat with each video for deeper exploration
Zero effort. Maximum retention.
The Science
You forget 90% of what you watch within a week. Spaced repetition—reviewing content at increasing intervals—can improve retention by 75-92%. Daily Digest automates this process so you actually remember what matters.
The Cross-Device Magic
This is where Daily Digest becomes genuinely different from every other learning tool.
Traditional tools:
"Open the extension. Click save. Add notes. Create flashcard manually. Review later."
Daily Digest:
Watch on your TV with a bowl of popcorn. Wake up to insights in your inbox.
How It Works
Your YouTube watch history already syncs across devices through your Google account. Daily Digest connects to this seamlessly.
While you sleep, TAGiT quietly reviews what you watched yesterday. It separates the signal from the noise—finding the videos worth remembering and letting the rest fade. Then our AI goes to work: extracting insights, identifying patterns, creating flashcards designed for long-term retention.
By the time you wake up, everything is waiting in your inbox. Organized. Actionable. Ready to review with your morning coffee.
No manual steps. No forgotten saves. Just knowledge, delivered.
What You Actually Get Each Morning
Let me show you what a real Daily Digest looks like:

The Features That Make It Powerful
1. Automatic Content Filtering
Not everything you watch deserves to be in your Daily Digest. TAGiT automatically excludes:
- •Music videos
- •Sports content
- •Gaming streams
- •Pure entertainment
- •YouTube Shorts
You can customize these filters in settings. Block specific channels. Curate what makes it into your digest. Control the signal-to-noise ratio.
2. Configurable Delivery
Delivery Time: Set when you want your digest (default: 7 AM)
Videos Per Digest: Choose how many videos to include (1-5, default: 3)
- •Fewer videos = deeper summaries
- •More videos = broader coverage
Personal Bio: Add context about yourself so AI tailors insights to your goals
- •"I'm a SaaS founder learning growth marketing"
- •"Medical student focusing on neuroscience"
- •"Product designer studying behavioral psychology"
The AI uses this to generate relevant, personalized takeaways.
3. Chat with Videos
Each video in your digest includes a "Chat with this video" button. Click it to:
- •Ask follow-up questions about specific moments
- •Get clarification on complex concepts
- •Generate additional flashcards from chat insights
- •Explore tangential topics mentioned briefly
You get 5 messages per video—enough to go deep without overwhelming you.
4. Thematic Connections
When Daily Digest spots patterns across videos you watched, it creates "Thematic Connections":
Example:
"You watched 3 videos about productivity this week. Recurring theme: Deep work requires intentional calendar blocking, not just willpower."
These AI-generated connections help you see patterns you'd miss otherwise.
