YouTube Transcript Scraper — $1/1K, LLM-ready
Pricing
$1.00 / 1,000 transcript extracteds
Transcripts for YouTube videos, playlists and channels: clean text, timestamped segments, optional chunks, metadata. $1 per 1,000; no charge when there are no captions.
Videos (watch, youtu.be, shorts, embed, live, or a bare 11-char ID), playlists, and channels (@handle, /channel/UC..., /c/, /user/). Can be mixed.
Language codes in priority order. If none is available, the video's first available transcript is used.
[ "en"]Add segments [{start, duration, text}] to each result.
If > 0, also output chunks of about this many characters with start timestamps (handy for RAG). 0 = off.
Cap on videos taken from each channel or playlist URL.
Optional. Uses YouTube's translation. Marked in output as translated; may hit rate limits more often.
Country code for the residential proxy fallback (used only when YouTube blocks the direct request).
