Tips for Using This Agent

• Start with your must-watch channels. Add the channels you never want to miss first. You can always expand your list later as you discover new creators.
• Group channels by theme or interest. Consider creating separate agents for different content categories—one for tech channels, another for fitness, etc.—so your digests are more focused.
• Review and prune your list periodically. If a channel stops posting or no longer interests you, remove it from your list to keep your digest relevant and concise.
• Use the summaries to prioritize your watch time. Scan the digest to identify which videos are worth your time, rather than watching everything or missing hidden gems.
• Pair with a "watch later" playlist. When you see something interesting in your digest, add it to a YouTube playlist so you have a curated queue ready when you have time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the agent find new videos?

The agent checks each YouTube channel URL in your list and identifies videos published within the last 7 days. It then compiles summaries of those videos into a single digest.

How many channels can I track?

You can add as many channels as you'd like. Keep in mind that tracking a large number of channels may result in longer digests and slightly higher run costs.

Can I change the schedule from weekly to daily?

Yes, you can modify the schedule in the Start Block settings. However, the default is optimized for weekly digests to give channels time to post new content.

What if a channel hasn't posted anything new?

Channels with no new videos in the past 7 days simply won't appear in that week's digest. You'll only see updates from channels that have posted recently.

Will I get the full video content in the email?

No, the digest provides summaries and links to new videos. You'll still watch the actual content on YouTube—the agent just helps you discover what's new.

Can I track channels that aren't in English?

Yes, the agent can track channels in any language. Summaries will be generated based on available video information regardless of the channel's language.

Is my data stored or shared?

The agent processes YouTube channel data to generate your digest. Your data is NOT shared or used for AI Model Training.
