AI Chat for YouTube Videos

Pair YouTube with AI Chat so viewers get instant answers and you see who watched and what they asked. You eliminate repeat questions, route people to pricing and next steps, and shorten cycles with clearer signal.

When this is useful

This setup is ideal any time a video is doing heavy lifting in your sales or customer education process. You want viewers to get the right answer fast without waiting on an email reply, while you capture who engaged and what they cared about.

Demo or explainer videos you share with prospects after first contact
Product walkthroughs embedded in outbound sequences or follow-up emails
Customer education, onboarding, or FAQ videos where questions repeat
Fundraising updates and recorded pitches where you want to qualify interest
Support videos that deflect tickets by steering people to the right answer

Step-by-step

Use these three steps to add AI Chat to any YouTube video with Send. The result is a single tracked link that opens the video with AI alongside it and optional viewer gates.

Why this is faster with Send

Connecting YouTube to Send upgrades a passive watch into an interactive, trackable conversation. Viewers get instant, guided answers, and you get the context you need to prioritize and prepare.

Instant clarity with AI Chat. Viewers ask anything about the video and your attached resources, and get answers immediately.
Guided discovery with Suggested Questions. You seed pricing, scope, and timeline prompts so the right information is one tap away.
Actionable analytics and activity. See who watched, where they’re located, device, how long they stayed, and the questions they asked the AI. For PDFs you upload later, you also get page-level time.
Progressive disclosure. Instead of dumping 10 assets, surface extras only when asked via the AI Profile, keeping focus high and effort low.

Troubleshooting & tips

Little setup goes a long way. Use these guardrails to keep answers accurate and signal strong.

If AI can’t answer, expand the AI Profile. Add the missing detail or a link the AI can share. You can include case studies, pricing pages, and a calendar URL so the AI routes to the next step.
Mention the chat. In your share note, include one line: "There’s AI chat alongside the video for quick answers." Engagement and quality of questions improve notably after a first call.
Tweak Suggested Questions. If viewers ask off-topic things, adjust prompts to pull them toward pricing, implementation, or success criteria.
Replace files under the same link. If you complement your video with a PDF later, you can replace that file without changing the Send link.
Use personalized links for known recipients. Create a custom URL slug to identify a specific person or account without requiring a gate.

Integrations & automation (webhooks)

After you share your Send link, you can push engagement into your systems in real time so nothing slips.

Trigger webhooks on document open or any link open. Pipe to Clay, Zapier, or Make to create or update contacts, log activity, and trigger alerts or sequences.
Send internal alerts. Notify account owners when a target account watches your video or asks about pricing.
Add to CRM. Automatically append the Send view and AI questions to the account timeline so reps show up prepared.

Privacy and controls

You control access and what recipients can do with the content.

Viewer gate. Require name, email, and optionally phone before viewing. You can hide content until the form is completed.
Disable download and print. Lock down sensitive materials. Your YouTube video remains embedded; any uploaded files respect these controls.
Replace files, keep the same link. Eliminate version chaos when you update a deck or PDF that complements the video.
