TranscriptAI for YouTube

Search and chat with YouTube transcripts using AI

TranscriptAI turns any YouTube video into a searchable, queryable knowledge base — right inside YouTube's own interface, no new tabs needed. 🔍 SMART TRANSCRIPT SEARCH Stop scrubbing through a video to find one moment. Search the transcript with semantic search that understands meaning, not just keywords. Ask "where did they explain the pricing model?" and it finds the spot even if those exact words were never said. 🤖 AI CHAT WITH TIMESTAMP CITATIONS Ask anything about the video and get answers grounded in the actual transcript. The AI searches the transcript before it answers — no guessing, no inventing content that isn't there. Every claim comes with a clickable timestamp that jumps the video straight to that moment. ⏱️ AUTO-GENERATED VIDEO TIMELINE Let AI break the video into labeled chapters automatically. See exactly what a video covers at a glance and skip straight to the part you care about — without watching a second you don't need to. 📋 FULL TRANSCRIPT WITH PLAYBACK SYNC Read the complete transcript while the video plays. Click any line to jump to that point. Great for note-taking, fact-checking, or following along in a second language. 🔑 YOUR KEYS, YOUR DATA TranscriptAI uses your own AI provider account, or a model running locally on your machine.
