Features that fit this work

What each one does and what it costs in units.

  • A transcript you can click

    Click any line to play that moment in the video above it; the line being spoken stays highlighted. Search inside the transcript, step through the matches, and copy a selection with a link to the second it starts.

    Cost: Included with the transcript: 1 unit per fetch, nothing extra.

    Open a YouTube transcript
  • Your caption languages, in order

    Set up to five preferred caption languages in Settings (for example “fr, en”). When a video has several tracks, your first match is used before the video's default.

    Cost: Free, for signed-in accounts.
