One video → a week of posts

The video already contains the hooks — the sharpest lines someone said out loud. The transcript is where you find them verbatim.

Runs on the MCP server (one sign-in, 30 free credits) or the REST API · repeat reads from your library are free.

How it works

1. Fetch the transcript of the video.
2. The assistant pulls the strongest verbatim lines — the ones that stop a scroll.
3. It drafts an X thread and a LinkedIn post, each built around a real quote.
4. Every post links back to the video, timestamped to the quoted moment.

Verbatim is the edge

Generic repurposing tools summarize; summaries are forgettable. The lines that work on social are the ones actually said — specific, voiced, quotable. Working from the transcript means every hook is real and every attribution survives a community-notes check.

Agent prompt — paste into Claude, ChatGPT, or any assistant connected to the BulkTranscripts MCP server:

Get the transcript of [VIDEO URL]. Find the 5 most quotable verbatim lines.
Write: (1) an X thread — hook from the best quote, 6 posts, each under 260
chars, ending with the timestamped video link; (2) a LinkedIn post — one
quote as the opener, 150 words, my take added: [YOUR ANGLE].

Or script it against the REST API:

curl "https://bulktranscripts.co/api/v1/transcript?video=VIDEO_ID"

What you’ll need

An MCP-capable assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) connected to https://bulktranscripts.co/mcp — one sign-in includes 30 free credits — or a license key for the REST API. Transcripts already in your library are re-read free, so iterating on the same videos costs nothing after the first pass.

Common questions

Can I run this across a whole channel weekly?

Pair it with the new-upload alerts workflow: the free check finds what's new, and only fresh videos spend a credit before drafting.

Do repeat drafts cost extra?

No — once a video is in your library, every re-read while you iterate on angles is free.
