YouTube Transcript, Metadata & AI RAG Chunker (99.9% Success Rate)
Ultra-fast, zero-browser 3-Engine YouTube Transcript & Metadata Extractor engineered for AI Agents (MCP), RAG Pipelines, LangChain, n8n, Make.com, and Clay.
Why Switch to This Actor?
- 3-Tier Self-Healing Extraction (99.9% Reliability): Automatically cascades across three independent extraction engines (
youtube-transcript-api$\rightarrow$ Direct Android InnerTube JSON3 $\rightarrow$yt-dlpsub-track fallback) so your automations never fail on consent walls or rate limits. - 100% Drop-In Backwards Compatible + Batch Mode: Supports both single
videoUrl(for drop-in replacement in existing workflows) andvideoUrlsarray to process hundreds of videos in a single container run. - Rolling-Caption Deduplication: Strips overlapping/repeated auto-caption lines so your LLM tokens aren't wasted on duplicate words.
- Built-in Semantic RAG Chunker: Automatically groups segments into token-bounded
ragChunkswith exactstartTime,endTime, and clickabledeepLinkUrl(https://youtu.be/{id}?t=120s) for instant citation in vector databases. - Zero-Charge Guardrail: You are never billed for a video that has no captions or fails validation.
