Paste a video link to pull its real captions — toggle timestamps on or off, then copy or download.
Only works on videos that actually have captions available — auto-generated or manually uploaded.
A transcript is exactly as accurate as YouTube's own caption track — useful for skimming, quoting, or searching a long video fast, but auto-captions can and do contain real errors.
Extracts the video's real caption track (auto-generated or manually uploaded) and cleans up YouTube's rolling caption format into readable, deduplicated text.
Toggle timestamps on when you need to jump back to a specific moment, off when you just want to read or search the words.
Not every video has captions. If the creator disabled auto-captions and never uploaded their own, there's genuinely nothing to extract — the same as clicking the CC button on YouTube itself and seeing nothing appear.
Exactly as accurate as YouTube's own captions for that video — we're reading the real caption track, not generating our own. Auto-captions can contain the same errors you'd see with CC turned on.
