Workflow overview
Why this workflow matters
Improves internal consulting operations and productivity. Relevant for managed services and support workflows.
Stop watching long videos, start listening to concise summaries. This workflow transforms any YouTube video URL sent via Telegram into a high-quality, spoken audio summary (MP3) and a structured text overview. It acts as your personal AI research assistant, turning lengthy content into bite-sized audio files that you can consume on the go. It leverages Decodo for robust transcript extraction, OpenAI for intelligent summarization, and for realistic text-to-speech generation. ✨ Features Telegram-First Interface:** Send links and receive audio directly in your chat app. Smart Validation:** Automatically checks if the link is a valid YouTube URL before processing to save API credits. Multi-Language Support:** Easily configure the output language (English, Spanish, German, etc.) via a simple Config node. The AI will translate and speak in this language. Robust Error Handling:** Gracefully handles videos with no captions/transcripts by notifying the user instead of breaking the workflow. Structured Data Extraction:** Uses AI to extract the Genre, Title, and Summary alongside the audio file. ⚙️ How it Works Trigger: You send a YouTube URL to your Telegram Bot. Validate: The workflow checks the URL pattern using Regex. Extract: Decodo scrapes the video page to retrieve the full transcript JSON. Process: A Code node flattens the complex JSON into a readable text format. Summarize: OpenAI (gpt-4o-mini) analyzes the text and writes a script optimized for listening. Speak: OpenAI converts the script into a high-definition MP3 file. Deliver: The bot replies with the Audio File and a formatted text summary including the genre tags and original link. 📥 Decodo Node Installation The Decodo node is used in this workflow for fetching the YouTube Transcript. Find the Node: Click the + button in your AlekSystem canvas. Search: Search for the Decodo node and select it. Credentials: When configuring the first Decodo node, use your API key (obtained with the 80% discount coupon). Setup: Open the Decodo (Fetch YouTube Transcript) node to ensure it is correctly targeting the YouTube service. 🎁 Get a free Web Scraping API subscription here 👉🏻 https://visit.decodo.com/X4YBmy ➕ How to Adapt the Template This workflow is highly flexible and can be modified for various content tasks: Change AI Model:* Easily swap the *OpenAI Chat Model* node with an *OpenAI* or *Anthropic (Claude)** node without altering the core logic. Create Long-Form Drafts:** Modify the AI System Prompt to generate a full 1,000-word blog post draft or a set of social media updates instead of a short audio script. Change Destination:* Replace the *Telegram* nodes with *Slack, **Microsoft Teams, Email (Gmail/SMTP), or Discord to deliver the audio and summary to your preferred channel. Create an Archive:* Connect the successful output to a *Google Sheets* or *Airtable** node to keep a searchable archive of every video summary created.
