A searchable service that harvests interviews, podcasts and speeches to track what prominent AI and tech figures say on video. It keeps only items where the target speaks, generates summaries, extracts quotes and links each quote to its precise spot in the transcript so users can jump to the source. The site lists tracked people with counts of recent and total appearances (examples include Dario Amodei, Alex Karp, Sam Altman, Marc Andreessen, Palmer Luckey, Greg Brockman, Satya Nadella, Elon Musk, Alexandr Wang, Yann LeCun and Eric Schmidt), and offers daily updates so trends and shifts in public views are easy to monitor.

Users can search people, suggest new figures (matched to Wikidata), and vote for who should be added next; high-vote targets are added first and supporters receive email notifications. A paid “Blumify Unlimited” option lets subscribers add up to three people immediately without waiting for votes. The product supports YouTube and podcast transcripts (including Spotify), provides a Chrome extension, developer resources (APIs and agent/llm docs), and comparison pages versus transcription tools like Otter.ai and Descript. The emphasis is concise, source-linked quotes and machine-generated summaries to help track how leaders’ positions evolve over time.

Do Frameworks Matter Anymore?

The importance of web frameworks is being questioned in 2026, as vibe coding and agentic programming shift focus away from implementation details. Frameworks mainly provide abstractions, structure, and constraints, but their significance may diminish as models and tools evolve, leading to more niche options or stability with existing choices like React.
