detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow revolutionizes YouTube content creation by automatically generating critical metadata like video previews, timestamps, and SEO-friendly tags. Leveraging AI and an external scraper, it transforms raw video subtitles into perfectly formatted content, saving creators significant time and enhancing video discoverability.
About This Workflow
This powerful n8n workflow streamlines YouTube content creation by automating the traditionally time-consuming process of generating video metadata. It intelligently integrates with a YouTube scraper (Apify) to fetch comprehensive subtitles from newly published videos. Subsequently, a sophisticated AI model (Mistral-large) meticulously analyzes the video script to craft compelling video previews, precise YouTube-style timestamps, and highly relevant, SEO-optimized tags. The workflow is designed to process only recent videos, gracefully waits for scraping jobs to complete, and structures the final output for immediate use in YouTube uploads, significantly enhancing efficiency for content creators and marketers alike.
