About Tugan.ai

Tugan.ai turns the things you already made, a video, an article, a podcast, into content you can publish everywhere else. It is built by one person, with a lot of help from AI agents.

How it works

It starts from a source

Paste a YouTube link, an article, a podcast or your own notes. Tugan reads the source first, so the content says what you actually said instead of what a blank prompt guesses.

It writes for each channel

One source becomes a blog post, a newsletter, an X thread, LinkedIn posts, emails or ads, each in the format that channel rewards.

You stay the editor

Every output is a draft you can change, regenerate or throw away. The goal is to save you the blank page, not to publish on your behalf.

The fastest way to see it is to try a free tool, no signup needed: YouTube transcript generator, YouTube to blog post or Twitter thread maker.

Who builds it

Baptiste Garcia, Founder, Tugan.ai

I wrote the first line of Tugan.ai on December 22, 2022, about three weeks after ChatGPT came out. The repository is still called GPT-webapp. Like a lot of people that winter, I thought a good prompt was a product. It is not.

What I learned, slowly, is that AI writes well when it has something real to work from: a video you recorded, an article you wrote, a podcast where you said something true. That is why Tugan starts from a source instead of a blank prompt, and why I care more about distribution than about word count.

I build alone, I self-host most of my stack, and I spend as much time as I can on a sailboat, where I wire my own electronics. The rule on board is the rule for the company: nothing essential should depend on something I do not control.
