• SRT (SubRip): Industry standard subtitle format, perfect for video editing software. Includes sequential numbering, timestamps, and text segments.
• VTT (WebVTT): Modern subtitle format for web videos, supported by HTML5 video players. Similar to SRT but with additional web-optimized features.

• Videos with manually created subtitles/captions
• Videos with auto-generated captions
• Videos from popular creators and channels
• Educational content, lectures, and tutorials
• News segments and interviews

If a video doesn't have any form of captions enabled, our tool won't be able to extract a transcript. Most popular content on YouTube includes captions, either manually created or auto-generated.

YouTube transcripts often include non-speech elements like [Music], [Applause], [Laughter], etc. These are:

• Added by YouTube's caption system or by the content creator
• Intended to make transcripts more accessible by noting audio cues
• Useful for understanding context in the video
• Preserved in our downloads for accuracy

If you need to remove these non-speech elements, you can easily edit them out of the downloaded file using any text editor.

Our AI-powered YouTube video summaries are:

• Generated using advanced natural language processing technology
• Designed to extract the most important points from the video's transcript
• Typically very accurate for well-structured informational content
• More concise than watching the entire video

The accuracy depends on the quality of the original transcript and how structured the video content is. For most educational, news, and informative videos, the summaries capture the key points effectively.
