YouTube to Text Converter
Paste any YouTube URL and get a full text transcript in seconds. Free, accurate, 50+ languages.
The fastest way to get a YouTube transcript
A YouTube transcript generator turns any public video into readable, searchable text. Students use transcripts to take notes from lectures and tutorials, marketers repurpose video content into blog posts and social captions, and researchers quote talks and interviews accurately without rewatching.
TranscribeX does not just copy YouTube's auto-generated captions. It transcribes the audio with AI, which produces cleaner punctuation, better handling of accents and technical vocabulary, and support for videos where captions are disabled.
Paste the video URL, pick the spoken language, and download the result as plain text or as an SRT subtitle file with timestamps. The SRT file can be uploaded back to YouTube or used in any video editor to caption your own content.
