About this tool

Transcripts are gold for students, researchers, journalists and SEOs. Paste a YouTube URL and this tool reads the video's publicly available caption tracks (auto or manual) and hands you the full transcript as plain text, SRT with timings, or VTT. If a video has captions disabled, we tell you honestly instead of faking output. Your file never leaves this page — processing runs in your browser via WebAssembly; nothing is uploaded and the file is dropped from memory when you close the tab.
