This automation is a complete YouTube trend research and content generation system built with n8n + AI. It automatically discovers trending YouTube videos for any keyword, filters high-performing content, analyzes thumbnails and transcripts, and generates optimized titles, thumbnail text, and fresh video outlines you can use immediately.
