Outlyo
What it is
Outlyo is a web-based AI tool for YouTube ideation and scriptwriting. It scans niche and competitor channels for videos outperforming their channel baselines, then rewrites those winning angles into ideas. By using channel transcripts, it can learn a creator’s voice and generate scripts in that style. Script support runs from Shorts to three-hour long-form videos, with PAS, Documentary, Listicle, Review, Educational, and Storytelling templates. Thumbnail Studio can rebuild a selected winning thumbnail concept with the creator in the frame. The free plan includes one connected channel, 1,000 credits per month, ideas, scripts, Script Editor, Intel, and light Research. Paid plans are Creator at $24 a month, Automation at $62 a month, and Scale at $99 a month; annual prices are listed for each. Outlyo uses public YouTube data and does not request private analytics access or posting permissions.
