ShortsRecall

Your Second Brain for short-form video. Automatically save and search closed captions for YouTube Shorts and TikTok.

Never lose a great Short or TikTok again. Have you ever watched a fantastic 60-second coding tutorial, recipe, or productivity hack on YouTube Shorts or TikTok, only to completely lose it when you try to find it days later? Standard browser history just saves useless, random URLs that are impossible to search through. ShortsRecall is your Second Brain for short-form video. It runs silently in the background while you watch videos on your desktop browser. If you watch a video for more than a few seconds, ShortsRecall automatically extracts its metadata and full spoken transcript (closed captions) and saves them to a private database locally on your computer. When you need to remember that one specific video, simply click the ShortsRecall extension icon and type what you remember. (e.g., "that video about the python pandas trick"). ✨ Key Features Automatic Background Capture: No clicking "save" required. Just watch YouTube Shorts and TikToks on the web, and ShortsRecall handles the rest. Full Transcript Indexing: We save the video's title, channel name, thumbnail, and the full spoken transcript. Lightning-Fast Search: Instantly search your watched videos by keyword right from the extension popup. Skip right to the information you need. 100% Privacy Focused: Your data never leaves your computer. Everything is stored locally. We don't track your general browsing history or send your transcripts to external servers. Free Tier Storage: Index up to 100 of your most recent videos completely for free. 🚀 Pro Features Upgrade to ShortsRecall Pro to unlock the ultimate video vault: Unlimited Storage: Save an infinite history of your watched short-form content. AI Semantic Search: Can't remember the exact words used? Pro unlocks local AI semantic search. Search by concepts, "vibes," or ideas, and the AI will find the transcript that matches your intent. Take control of your short-form video consumption. Turn endless scrolling into a searchable, personal knowledge base with ShortsRecall. (Note: ShortsRecall only captures data on the desktop web versions of YouTube Shorts and TikTok, not on mobile apps).
