How hands-off: Assists you, you do the final step
Setup: An afternoon · about an afternoon

OpenAI Chat Model : Summarizing content via GPT-4o

Watch out for

Supadata API calls may fail on private or restricted videos, so add error handling that notifies the user of access issues.
Long transcripts can exceed token limits, so implement a chunking strategy or use a model with a larger context window.
Telegram message length is capped at 4096 characters, so truncate long summaries and append a link to the full transcript if needed.
Rate limiting on both Supadata and OpenAI APIs can cause delays, so add retry logic with exponential backoff.
