Download videos, then get transcripts you can search and ask AI about
Download from YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Twitch, Bilibili, and 1000+ sites, or import local files. Turn speech into searchable transcripts on your computer, with speakers and timestamps. Then summarize, translate, or ask questions with the AI provider you choose.

FAQ
To deliver an out-of-the-box experience, we bundle yt-dlp, the Deno JS runtime, ffmpeg, and ffprobe so downloads succeed more often and formats, audio, and subtitles work immediately. Other software keeps installers small by downloading these after installation, but that slows down the first-run experience.
