How it works

Get a transcript in three steps. No installation, no plugins, no setup.

Copy any video link from YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, X/Twitter, or a direct video URL and paste it into the input.

VidScribe uses native captions when available, or Whisper AI audio transcription as a fallback — all automatically.

Read, copy, or download the full transcript as .txt or .srt. Search within it or share with your team.

Simple on the surface, powerful underneath.

YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, X/Twitter, and direct video URLs — all in one place.

When native captions aren't available, we fall back to OpenAI Whisper for accurate speech-to-text.

Native caption extraction completes in seconds. Audio transcription streams progress in real time.

Download your transcript as plain text (.txt) or subtitle file (.srt). Copy to clipboard instantly.

Get 3 free transcript previews per day without creating an account.

Every transcript you generate is saved to your dashboard. Search, filter, and revisit anytime.
