02Frequently asked

How do I get a transcript of a YouTube video?

Paste the YouTube link above and press Transcribe. Scribetape downloads the audio and transcribes it into timestamped text.

Does it work for long videos?

Yes. An hour of video is usually done in a few minutes, and longer ones scale from there — roughly 5 minutes per hour of audio, most of it spent downloading the audio from the platform. The page shows an estimate while it runs, and you can close the tab: the link keeps working.

What can I export?

Plain text (TXT), subtitles (SRT), and WebVTT (VTT) — one click each.
