How to transcribe a YouTube video into text

Get a transcript of a supported public YouTube video, choose a summary length and check names, quotations and facts before saving the result.

Open the app

A guide by «Transcription» · Updated

Use a specific video link

Choose YouTube → Video in the app, paste a public video link and start transcription. A channel link belongs in the Channel option. Playback in your browser does not guarantee that the service can retrieve the recording.

Speech, summaries and source limitations

The full transcript follows the spoken content; short, medium and detailed summaries reorganize it. They do not describe silent visuals or guarantee exact quotations. If the link fails, upload an authorized local file within the size and duration limits.

Check and save the result

AI helps you understand the material but can make mistakes. Check exact quotations, names, numbers and important conclusions against the original recording.

Reopen saved entries, rename them and add notes. Copy the selected view or download available summaries and the transcript as TXT.

Questions

What are the current limits?

The current cloud configuration allows recordings up to ten hours and uploads up to 20 MiB. An internet connection is required. Larger files need to be split or compressed without making the speech unclear.

Do I need an account or subscription?

Your own files and individual public videos do not require login. Instagram account import requires login to your own professional Business or Creator account; other people’s and personal accounts cannot be connected. Core features are free. Sign in with Google or Apple to save history in your account and synchronize it across devices using the main app. Without sign-in, recordings stay on this device; you can choose to add them to your account.
