AI Analysis

●●SolidSolve My ProblemCozy

Fast local search for YouTube likes; free tier limited to 300 recent videos, $19 unlocks all.

Strengths
  • Addresses real friction: YouTube's like library becomes unsearchable after ~300 videos, no official solution.
  • Privacy-first: local caching + offline search avoids shipping watch history to third servers.
  • Keyboard-first design (Ctrl+K) integrates naturally into existing YouTube workflow.
Weaknesses
  • $19 one-time is competitive with Spotify/Apple Music playlist tools but limited to a subset of one platform's feature.
  • Extension-only distribution creates friction; relies entirely on Chrome Web Store availability (item currently marked unavailable per screenshot).

Built a Mac app to add sidebars to videos, like YC does on YouTube

Recreates YC's right-hand chapter UI and bakes it into an exportable video workflow — drag in clips, write or AI-generate sidebar sections, then render a single video with the sidebar burned in. Clever shortcut for creators who want that specific branded look quickly; the kicker will be cross-platform support and export fidelity compared to full video editors.

Omniget, a Desktop Media Downloader

The neat technical hook is the Udemy/Hotmart login handling — the app injects JS into a WebView to capture cookies (using WebView2 on Windows and a JS-redirect trick on macOS/Linux) so it can pull entire courses including attachments. Add native Telegram QR/phone logins, an yt-dlp fallback for 1000+ sites, and GPU-accelerated FFmpeg conversion, and you get a focused desktop tool that actually tackles the messy parts of course and media scraping.
