Quality Content is EVERYTHING.

We're thrilled to share that we've pushed the boundaries of content creation once again! Our Automated Research feature has undergone a massive upgrade, making it even easier for you to craft quality content that resonates and engages. Captain now transcribes and scans these new media types automatically and finds the most relevant information and includes it in your content:

1. Links to YouTube videos
2. Podcasts and other audio files
3. PDFs
4. Webpage URLs
And remember, this is on top of Automated Google Research and Expert Perspectives.

Even Better Quality Content

At the heart of our latest feature rollout is diversity in research sources. You can now enrich your content with insights from various media types. Whether it's a YouTube video that explains the latest trends, a podcast episode that offers industry insights, a Webpage or PDF that breaks down complex data, Captain automatically transcribes them and then seamlessly integrates the most relevant insights into your content.

Effortlessly Incorporate YouTube and Podcast Content

Say goodbye to the tedious task of transcribing videos and podcasts for those nuggets of wisdom. Captain now automatically transcribes YouTube and Podcast content, cherry-picking the most relevant parts and weaving them into your articles, complete with citations. It's quality content creation with scale.

Leverage Web Page and PDF Content with Precision

We understand that every URL or PDF is a potential goldmine of information. That's why we've made it possible for you to add any webpage URL and PDF, and Captain will analyze and utilize its content. It's like having a research assistant who knows exactly what you're looking for and finds it in no time.

No Fear of Bogus Research or Links

"Our strategy has always been to deliver content that's rich in insights, statistics, data, and research. It needs to be valuable for the end reader just as much as it needs to be valuable for the brand that's publishing it."

You’re in Control

For brands, marketers, and content creators, this means more robust content strategies, efficient research, and high-quality outputs that drive engagement and conversions. You can now enjoy a streamlined process that delivers content that's informative and meticulously sourced and cited.

You don’t need to worry about AI including erroneous links to incorrect or fake stats, data or insights - or dropping in links to competitors. Captain gives you full control over what research is included and from what sources.

From the Experts

Richard McBeath 🧑‍✈️

Co-founder @ Captain | AI, Data

"At Captain, we've always optimized for quality first and then scalability. But first and foremost, the output of our content has had to be, you know, on point, rich in insights, statistics, data, and research. It needs to be valuable for the end reader just as much as it needs to be valuable for the brand that's publishing it. We're just so excited to announce this further enhancement to our advanced research functionality. Now, you can upload multiple media types—YouTube videos, podcasts, page URLs—and Captain will take from those videos, audio, and text what's most relevant to the content being created, and organically and automatically insert it into the content, citing it. So everything that's included in the content has been sourced, researched, and includes citations. It's really producing incredibly powerful and quality-first content and campaigns. With Captain, you just don't need to worry about erroneous, made-up stats, statistics, or research like you often see with AI. The sources are all, you know, found from automated Google research or from the sources that you're adding. And you also don't have to worry about or take time finding relevant snippets or pieces from different sources. Captain will do that all automatically. It'll find what's most relevant from Google, from YouTube, from podcasts, from articles, and take those pieces and automatically insert them into the content."
