YouTube, without opening YouTube.
Channel and video performance, with the captions to read alongside.
- Free to start
- No card
- Reads only, nothing to approve
- Your own account, not a shared login
Ask in your own words.
Nothing to configure and no builder to open. Copy one of these into a thread, swap in your own YouTube details, and Ray takes it from there.
@Ray how is the launch video doing compared to the last one?
@Ray what are people saying in the comments on the demo video?
@Ray how many subscribers did we gain this month?
@Ray pull the captions from that video so I can quote it.
What Ray can and cannot do in YouTube
Reading is free, because reading changes nothing. Everything that writes waits for you. The rest is not on Ray’s list.
16 reads wired, and nothing that writes.
Runs on its own
What Ray reads in YouTube
- Channels, their videos, playlists, and sections
- Video statistics, ratings, and channel activity
- Comments, comment threads, and caption tracks
Reading changes nothing, so Ray never stops to ask whether it may look something up.
No send, no spend
What Ray answers with
Ray reads YouTube and answers from it in the thread. Writing to YouTube is not switched on yet, so there is nothing here to approve.
Not on the list
Things Ray is never handed
These are left out during curation, so they are not something Ray could do and decides against. They are not in front of it at all.
- Change or delete a video
- Post or delete a comment
- Change a playlist, a thumbnail, or the channel
How Ray works with YouTube
No workflow to build, and nothing to maintain when the work changes.
- 01
Connect YouTube
One click, right where you asked. Ray posts a connect card, you authorise YouTube with your own account, and the work you asked for picks up where it left off.
- 02
Ask in plain words
In the conversation you were already having. Nothing to build, no trigger to map, no tab to open.
- 03
Ray answers where you asked
Ray only reads YouTube, so there is nothing here to approve. It looks up what it needs and replies in the thread.

@Ray the checkout bug is back. Take a look in YouTube, and tell Dana it is being looked at.

Checked YouTube. The spec was last edited on Tuesday and the open question about refunds is still unanswered.
Ray uses YouTube together with the rest of your tools.
One ask can read YouTube, cross-reference what is in these, and land the finished result back in the thread. Not four connectors taking turns, one teammate with one memory.
What does connecting YouTube to Ray actually do?
Ray is an AI teammate that works in your team chat, on Slack today. Connect YouTube and it can do the YouTube part of a request without anyone leaving the conversation: read what it needs, draft the change, and post it for approval before anything is written.
It is not a workflow builder. There is no trigger to configure and no automation to repair when your process shifts. You describe the outcome in the thread and Ray picks the actions, including actions in your other connected tools when the request spans more than one.
Every person on the team connects their own YouTube account, so Ray can only reach what that person can already reach, and the history in YouTube shows who actually asked.
Security and permissions
- You authorise YouTube on its own login screen. Your password never passes through Ray.
- Writes are gated in the execution path, not by a prompt. There is no setting that grants blanket approval.
- Each workspace is isolated at the database level, and that isolation is tested by trying to break it.
- Disconnect YouTube in a message, or uninstall Ray and every connection it held is revoked.
YouTube and Ray, answered
The questions teams ask before they connect YouTube. Every answer is how this integration is built rather than a promise about it.
More marketing & ads integrations
Ray uses them together in a single run when a request spans more than one.
Put Ray to work in YouTube.
Free to start, no credit card, and it asks before it acts.
