YouTube Prediction Tracker

Keep score on the people I listen to.

Walk me through connecting TranscriptAPI (transcriptapi.com), which returns YouTube transcripts and video and channel search.

Ask me which channels to follow (institutional such as @TED, @NASA or @natgeo, or the shows and analysts I watch), which subjects to score, and how confidently a statement must be made to count as a call. Also ask me where to send the weekly scoreboard (this chat, Slack, email, Discord or Telegram) and where to keep the scoreboard itself (a Notion database, a Google Sheet, or a state file), and connect only what I pick.

Run weekly: check each channel for new uploads, pull the transcript, and extract every falsifiable prediction (a claim about the future with something checkable and, where stated, a date). Log each: who said it, the channel, the video, the timestamp, the claim in their own words, the resolve date, and how confidently it was said. Skip opinions, jokes and hedges. Keep a state file of every video read.

Every week, take the calls whose resolve date passed, check what happened, and mark each correct, wrong or unresolvable with a one line note and a source. Send me one update a week wherever I chose: new calls logged, calls that just resolved, and the running scoreboard (each voice's hit rate, call count, most confident wrong call, least likely right one). Add one line I would enjoy, for example the voice whose confidence and accuracy are furthest apart. If nothing moved, a single line.

Keep it fair: quote accurately, link video and timestamp, do not score sarcasm, do not post publicly. Run one dry run over one channel's last month, then save it.
