We built TLDW (too long, didn't watch), a tool that helps you learn from long YouTube videos better & faster. AI video summaries are solving the wrong problem. You don't need a generic text summary of a 1-hour video. You need the 5 minutes that actually change how you think.

after talking to many ai app builders in SF and seeing ai apps posted on X, i realized one thing: a lot more mediocre teams are now able to build a lot more mediocre products much faster the projects they built are very demo level, non-usable, and look like every other vibe

Learning ≠ Education. Education is passive and institutional. Learning is active, personalized, and continuous. I’m passionate about building in the learning space.
