ytassist

A private tool by SynRidge.

ytassist is a personal command-line helper that the channel owner runs on their own computer to manage their own YouTube channels. It is not a public service and does not accept sign-ups.

What it does

• Uploads videos to the owner's channels, or fills in drafts the owner already uploaded in YouTube Studio.
• Sets titles, descriptions, hashtags, tags, category, language, location, thumbnails and playlists from local files.
• Schedules publication times.
• Shows the owner's own channel analytics (views, watch time, subscribers, top videos).

Google sign-in

ytassist uses Google OAuth with these permissions, granted per channel by the owner:

• youtube: manage the owner's videos, playlists and thumbnails.
• yt-analytics.readonly: read the owner's YouTube Analytics reports.

ytassist uses YouTube API Services. See the privacy policy.
