Creator’s Best Friend converts Markers from a Final Cut Pro project, a Premiere Pro sequence, or an OTIO timeline exported from DaVinci Resolve into Video Chapters for YouTube.
After you copy the Video Chapters, you simply paste them into the Description field of your video. You can edit the Description field at any time in Creator’s Studio. Once you Save, YouTube interprets the Video Chapters, displays them along the video timeline, and makes clickable links from the time stamps.
Obviously Video Chapters improve the viewing experience, and provides benefits for Creators.
Viewers can go directly to sections that interest them, increasing engagement.
They can also navigate directly to Product and affiliate links directly from the Chapter Markers, although for affiliate links you might want to use a URL Shortener.
All the information in the Description field, including Video Chapters helps video ranking.
Start adding Chapter Markers in Final Cut Pro X as you edit your Project. Make sure they are Chapter Markers. Add in any Emojis or links — they’ll all appear in your YouTube Video Chapters.
When you’re done, drag the Project to Creator’s Best Friend. Instantly you see all Chapter Markers from the Project.
Here you can:
• correct any spelling errors
• follow links to make sure they are correct, and
• paste in links or shortened links
Click the Copy button and head for YouTube and paste into the Description field. You can do this when you first publish, or any time after.
Creator’s Best Friend will save you time, and help make you more money.

Good, but could be close to perfect!

Does exactly what it says it can do. For your consideration: - Ability to drag and drop XML file from finder window into application would be easier than navigiating- option to add the left and right brackets and remove the hyphen to the timestamp (e.g. [0:55] Intro)
App no longer works

This App worked great until new version of 10.8 Broke it. Not it freezes up all of final cut pro. Avoid this program until an update is done to it.
Developer Response
The workflow extension works fine on my Mac with FCP 10.8. I'd suggest re-downloading the app again. And if you still have problems, please use the Email Bug Report item under the app's help menu to get in touch with me.
Perfect Simple App
