About YT Transcript
YT Transcript is a simple, free tool for one job: turning any public YouTube video into a clean, readable transcript in seconds.
Why We Built This
Videos are great, but they’re not always the fastest way to get information. Sometimes you want to skim, search for one specific moment, copy a quote, or hand the words to an AI tool for a summary — and none of that requires watching in real time. YT Transcript exists to make the words in any video as accessible and usable as the video itself.
What You Can Do Here
- Paste a link from any regular YouTube video, Short, live stream, or youtu.be link;
- Get a readable transcript in seconds, with word count, character count, and reading time calculated automatically;
- Search inside the transcript to jump straight to what you’re looking for;
- Copy it in one click, or download it as a TXT, PDF, or DOCX file.
Our Approach
No accounts, no sign-ups, no paywalls for using the tool. We built this because we wanted it to exist and be genuinely useful — not just another sign-up funnel.
