Founder & CEO at Pictory
YouTube is the second largest search engine globally, but its modern value extends far beyond platform views. Generative AI engines such as Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude consistently crawl and cite YouTube transcripts when synthesizing answers to user prompts. If your business only relies on traditional text blogs, AI engines often bypass your content. Having video transcripts covering your core domain ensures your company gets cited prominently in generative search answers.
