YText
Simple & Fast
Use a YouTube transcript extractor and transcript generator to copy video text, keep timestamps and summarize transcripts with AI.
Paste any public YouTube link and use YText as a YouTube Transcript Extractor, Transcript Generator, YouTube Transcriber, video-to-text converter and AI summary workflow. The page is built around the search terms people actually use when they want YouTube transcripts, captions, clean text, timestamps and transcript-based summaries.
YText supports watch links, Shorts, live URLs, embeds, youtu.be links, and direct video IDs. After transcript extraction, you can copy full transcript text, timestamped transcript text, or structured transcript segments.
Use the generated YouTube transcript for source review, note taking, accessibility, editing, article planning, transcript summaries and fast AI video summaries without exposing private API keys in the browser.
These workflows match common searches for a YouTube transcript extractor, transcript generator, captions as text, and AI summaries built from transcripts.
Paste a YouTube link into YText and start the extraction. If captions are available for the video, YText formats them into readable transcript text.
