Transcriptube – YouTube Transcript & Summary

Transcript and AI summary of the video you are watching, in a side panel – with timecodes, search and your own files.

Reading is faster than watching. Transcriptube puts the transcript and an AI summary of the YouTube video you have open into Chrome's side panel – next to the video, one click away. WHAT IT DOES - Opens the current video's transcript and summary in the side panel. The panel follows your active tab: open another video and it shows that one. - The summary is bullet points with timecodes, in any of 14 languages. Copy it, or save it as a text file. - Full transcript with instant search. Click a timecode and the video on the page jumps there; while it plays, the current line is highlighted. - Ask about the video: answers come from the transcript, with the minute they came from, and the price is shown before you send. - Videos without captions are recognised from speech – up to 10 minutes free, priced by the minute after that, with live progress that survives closing the panel or the laptop going to sleep. - Your own audio and video files: drop them on the panel. Length is read locally, a video's sound is separated in your browser, and only that is uploaded. - Paste a link – TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook or any YouTube URL – without opening a tab. - Recent: everything you have run, on your account, on any device. FREE AND PAID Sign in with a six-digit code sent to your email – no password. Three videos a day are free, each with its transcript and summary; videos without captions and your own files count too, up to 10 minutes each. For more – a fourth video in a day, a summary of a video over 90 minutes, longer speech recognition, questions – the price is shown before anything is charged: a single-video unlock, a credit pack or a subscription. Payment is handled by Stripe in a normal browser tab. PRIVACY, PLAINLY The extension sees the address of YouTube tabs and, when you open the panel on another site, the address of that one tab – never your history or other tabs. A video or file is sent to our server only when you press the button for it. AI features ask for your permission first: transcripts go to OpenAI and Anthropic, the audio of files and captionless videos to Deepgram. Details: https://transcriptube.com/privacy
