Write YouTube Chapter Descriptions — That Keep Viewers Watching

You don’t need to skip chapters and lose engagement. With Summrly, you create a content-first website where AI generates clear, keyword-rich YouTube chapter descriptions with timestamps — so viewers jump to what matters and stay longer.

Why a Content-First Website Wins at Watch Time

Most videos have no chapters or weak descriptions. Summrly turns your script or topic into structured sections: “0:00 Intro,” “2:15 Tip #1,” “5:40 Demo” — improving navigation, SEO, and retention.

How to Write Chapter Descriptions in 5 Steps

Create Your First Topic – Enter your video topic (e.g., “how to start a blog,” “best laptops 2025”).
Set Up Your Content Focus – Choose key sections or takeaways.
Add Keywords – Include terms like “timestamp,” “chapter,” or “skip to.”
Brand Details – Add your tone and CTA (e.g., “Subscribe for more”).
Complete Setup – Generate AI-powered chapter list and add to your video description.
