Select a teaching series, not your entire channel
Choose videos that serve one audience and one use case. A coherent series about building an offer is easier to scope than an archive mixing tutorials, interviews, news, and personal updates. Flag old videos whose advice you have since changed.
Check the transcript against the video
Captions may miss a framework name, a number, or a qualification that changes the meaning. Check those passages against the recording. Add a plain-language explanation of charts, slides, screen demonstrations, or gestures when they carry information that the transcript leaves out.
Keep the source and context attached
Record the video title, original URL, topic, and relevant timestamps alongside the prepared text. Note who the advice is intended for and any prerequisite lessons. This source map gives you a way to trace and review the teaching used during the build; it is not a promise of a particular citation feature.
Handle interviews and client examples carefully
Your right to publish a video does not settle every permission question about reusing a guest’s material or a client’s details in an AI experience. Review what can be included, remove unnecessary identifying information, and confirm appropriate permissions before supplying the content.
Review answers that connect multiple lessons
Test questions that combine ideas from two videos, questions based on an older recommendation, and questions the selected series never answers. A useful assistant should follow the current teaching and acknowledge gaps. Discuss transcript preparation, supported formats, and any requested YouTube integration during scoping rather than assuming an automatic channel import.
