[00:00] ChatGP Teaser has released a brand new update that now allows you to pretty much automate your entire YouTube channel. And this is absolutely nuts, and it's actually my secret behind being able to run so many different channels. By the end of this video, you're going to know exactly how to set this up,

[00:13] and how you can begin to automate things away so that you get better results, and spend less time creating content. Let's dive into it. Okay, so that brand new update that makes this all possible now on ChatGP, because if you come into ChatGP today, you're going to see that this looks completely different.

[00:28] they now have chat, they now have work right here, and tons of other things. But what you can actually do now, is if we scroll up right here, you are now going to see plugins. If we click into this plugin right here, you are going to actually be able to come in here, search for plugins,

[00:41] type in vidIQ, and this will actually allow you to link this to YouTube, and link ChatGPT to YouTube. So in order to do this, you do need a vidIQ account, and if you go to the link in the pinned comment, you can get access to it for $1.

[00:54] This right here literally gives you access to that. You can sign up in seconds. Then you're just going to come back over to ChatGT. You're going to click on plus right here, and it is going to walk you through actually linking this to your account. We can see right here that you then need to sign in, which is why I would go to that link in the pinned comment first.

[01:10] I would sign up for $1. You're literally not going to be able to get that offer anywhere else. It's an exclusive just for this video and just for my audience. Then we can see once you actually add VidIQ to ChatGT, it's going to give you instant access to your channel analytics,

[01:23] to your video performance data, to your keyword research, SEO scores. You're going to be able to ask it about your own channel stats, find keywords that are doing well. You'll be able to find B-roll and all the other things that I've shown you and that I'm going to continue to show you in this video.

[01:37] So once you actually have this linked up, then you'll be able to automate things inside of Jackson Key. You can see that I also have it linked up right here via a custom MCP. But what you'll now be able to do is come over into schedules right here,

[01:50] and you'll be able to go through and automate anything that you want. For example, I could come over here and say something like this. I want to automate an audit on my YouTube channel. Using the bit I keep logging every Monday at 9 a.m., I want you to do a complete audit that tells me everything I need to improve my content

[02:04] and what my focus should be for the week. Now, all you simply do is tell Chat to be key to run off and do this, and it is actually going to get everything set up. You can see that it opens up a new window right here. It's now going through, and it's actually creating this scheduled task.

[02:18] and you can see my weekly YouTube audit is now scheduled to run every Monday at 9 a.m. Each audit will use vidIQ to evaluate our recent content and deliver exactly what is working and what is underperforming, title, thumbnail, topics, views, retention signals, biggest channel problems, specific content improvements,

[02:33] video ideas, prioritize action items, one clear primary focus for this week. Now, if we actually click into this, we can see this is all set up now and ready to go, but what I going to do is I actually going to come over here and I going to click on run now in order to get this to run right now so that I can actually show you exactly what kind of output we get here what you can expect and what you might need to fix if the results don look good for you

[02:57] And now we can see that this is going through and this is actually pulling the available vidIQ data channel first. So basically what vidIQ is doing is it's giving ChatGPT access to our YouTube channel. Without vidIQ's plugin removed, it would never be able to do this, and it would just give us a bunch of generic information,

[03:13] not things that are actually specific to our channel, but because we have it set up, the results that we're going to get are going to be mind-boggling. So now we can see that this goes through and gives us this. We can see that the audit window right here is for the last 30 days.

[03:25] The current channel size, 913,000 subscribers in the last 30 days. It's gotten 2 million views, 4,000 subscribers. I've uploaded 54 times. This goes through an executive diagnosis right here, which is that search-driven shorts generates most of our raw reach.

[03:39] Long-form videos generate deeper watch time and stronger subscriber value, but their results are extremely inconsistent. And this goes through exactly why this is. So this goes through the single most important focus that we need to actually go through this week,

[03:51] what is actually working right here and actually gives us specific things. Our search goes through our shorts library right here, showing us long-form videos convert subscribers as well, posting consistently, what is actually underperforming right here, and this goes through all this,

[04:06] goes through all the long-form videos that have flopped, this goes through retention and how this actually changes based on what we're uploading, suggested video traffic is weak, goes through our channel growth, goes through our broad sponsor tools vulnerability,

[04:19] and now this goes through a title audit right here, and look at this. This literally gives me everything that I could do, everything that I could change, even a thumbnail audit and recommendations. And this is actually nuts that this goes through and does this

[04:32] and says exactly what we should recommend, what we should change right here. Now I have a step-by-step plan built on what is actually working on YouTube because this is pulling data from my real channel.

[04:45] Now, the second change that I want to show you, or rather prompt that I want to show you, is even crazier. We can see right here that I can say something like, using the bit I keep on in, please find outliers on the video topic for ChatGPT 5.6. and then look at what this actually does.

[04:58] This goes through and actually creates this new thing right here where I can actually go through all the views, the views per hour. And what's actually pretty cool here is that this is actually my video right here, and this is my video. We come in the show all 10, and this really shows us exactly what the videos are.

[05:14] We filter them. We can sort them directly inside of Chats with your key here. So basically, we're now able to do YouTube research without ever actually needing Chats with your key. In addition to that, we could come over here, and this actually gives us a chart right here with the videos,

[05:26] the channel, the outlier score, how many views it got, and the takeaways right here. And what's even cooler is this tells us the biggest patterns that it's seeing, and if it was planning my next three videos what it would actually do and then what we can actually do is come over here and let say that we like this idea We could say something like I like this idea

[05:44] I should give it the idea right here. And then we could say, can you please create a script, usual format, that will cover this video. Now, 17 things ChatGPT can do, that is an incredibly long video, which is something that I personally wouldn't want to go through and do manually because it would probably take me hours to come up with this.

[06:04] But we can see that now ChatGPT is going to handle this like a pro because it understands how I script my videos out. It's going to search for all the information, all the documentation, do all the research. And then this is going to deliver to me a script that is perfect.

[06:19] It's going to be well-researched. It's going to be in my format. It's going to be everything that I wish it was, but I didn't actually have to do all the work. And then look at this right here. It goes through, gives me a great intro. We have our title right here.

[06:31] And now this is going to write out the entire script. Check this out. And look, this has gone through. We have our first point. If we come down, we have our second point. If we come down, we have our third point. And if we scroll all the way down, look at how long of a script this is writing

[06:45] with everything that I need to do perfectly in my format. Now, this next prompt that I want to show you is even crazier. So you can see right here again that I grabbed the vidIQ plugin, and I said, I am in the AI news nation.

[06:58] By the way, instead of doing this in a chat-to-pd chat, I actually did this inside of ChatGP work, which basically is just a stronger way to be able to get way more stuff done. Let's see if this says, I am an AI news news. Talk about ChatGP, call on Gemini.

[07:11] Can you determine the best topics and make a post about today? Give me a title for it. Write the script. Find B-roll for it and tell me exactly what I should do. Now, if we scroll all the way down, I'm going to go top to bottom on this. So we can see right here, this actually tells us exactly where to grab the B-roll from for this specific video.

[07:28] If we actually click on any of these, it will link us out to exactly where we can actually grab that B-roll and that content, which is incredible because now I can just give this to my editor. Here's what it actually looks like. It actually found the documentation page right here where he could grab a bunch of this really good stuff right here.

[07:44] It just takes a super long to load because I'm recording and trying to do all this at the same time. Now, the next thing is if we come back over into GHPT, we can see it also tells us exactly where to add that B-roll.

[07:56] Again, I'm just going to be sending this to my editor, or if you wanted to get chat, you could do that at your content. You could literally get it to do that by just passing along all these notes. Now, if we come up a little bit longer right here, this is the entire YouTube script right here.

[08:09] Again, written in my format. It's got a mid-video CTA. It's got an entry quad. It's got these transition phrases. This is drastic perfectly in order to be able to optimize for retention. In addition to that if we scroll up even more we can see that this actually created the thumbnail This gives me my recommended titles and this right here literally only took two minutes for this to do I want you to think about how long it would have taken a human to do this same exact task

[08:34] It probably would have taken two hours. But you actually could even be able to do it in two minutes. And this is how you could get out way more content, way better content, way more research content in way less time. Now, that last prompt that I want to show you right here is going to be incredibly powerful.

[08:48] And that prompt is going to be, I upload content about how to grow on TikTok, how to grow on YouTube, how to grow on Instagram, on YouTube. Can you please use the vidIQ plugin to determine who my competitors are, what video topics are trending, and what keywords people are searching for.

[09:03] Now, whenever you are going to ask ChatGipiTea to do something multiple different ways and multiple different times, whether it's scheduled out or in just a one-off prompt, you're going to want to switch to ChatGipiTea Work right here because it does a way better job.

[09:15] In addition to that, you can actually come over here and choose different models right here, and choose different effort levels, and choose different speed, which is really cool. And what you can actually do is come over here, paste this same exact thing in here.

[09:27] Basically, Chatubity Work is just designed to do it way better, because regular Chatubity is a little bit agentic, but Chatubity Work is super agentic, aka if you told chat to do five things, it might not actually do all five of them, and it might take a long time to actually do all five of them.

[09:44] But if you give that to chat, it works. It breaks it out and breaks it out in just a way different way, in a way better way, so that one, it gets it done faster. Two, it gets it done more efficiently, and you're not going to have as many hiccups when you're using chat to do work to handle more complex tasks like this.

[10:01] You can see that it creates the outputs. It creates the sources. In fact, it literally just went through, downloaded our key plugin, and now this is going to knock this out for us. Now you can see that this has gone through, and this has actually created this right here, which is incredibly powerful.

[10:15] We can go through and show all of them. This goes through all of our different competitors right here, and it's pretty crazy that it was able to find what the primary overlap is, why they're actually our competitor. This now goes through the topics that are doing really well based on views per hour, based on views,

[10:32] And this goes through what these specific signals actually mean and the biggest things that are doing well. Goes through the best videos for me to make next. What people are actually searching for right here, literally for every single one of these platforms.

[10:44] And this was just able to handle all of this. And we could see that my content priorities, your YouTube growth, TikTok virality and monetization, Instagram news page experiments, goes through why this actually is. And this literally just did hours, if not a week's worth of research in, let's see,

[11:01] This must have been like 90 seconds or something like that. If we scroll up, it should tell us, yeah, 48 seconds. Less than a minute, it was able to do all of that. Now, if you enjoyed this video and you want to learn how the YouTube algorithm works right now in July of 2026,

[11:14] I would strongly suggest you check out this video right here. I'll see you over there.
