Split a YouTube transcript by chapters

Get a video's transcript cut into its chapters: each chapter's title, start and end time and its own transcript text, next to the full transcript and video details. Works with the uploader's chapters and YouTube's automatic chapters. This example splits 3Blue1Brown's "But what is cross-entropy?" (34 min) into its 10 chapters. $0.004 per transcript; chapters cost nothing extra.
