YouTube Transcript Scraper

Get the full transcript of any YouTube video, Short or live, as plain text and as timed segments, for a whole list of videos in one run.

Why this one

Reliable. Blocked requests are retried on a fresh residential IP. In our tests, 14 out of 14 real videos came back.
Your language first. Give a list like pt, en. If none exists, you get the first transcript available, and you can translate it into any language.
Clear errors. Private, deleted or transcript-less videos come back with the reason, and you are not charged for them.

Input

Field	What it does
`videos`	Video URLs or 11-character IDs (watch, youtu.be, Shorts, live, embed)
`languages`	Preferred language codes, in order
`translateTo`	Optional language code to translate into
`includeSegments`	Return each line with start time and duration

Output

{
  "videoId": "dQw4w9WgXcQ",
  "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ",
  "language": "English",
  "languageCode": "en",

  "segments": [{"start": 18.64, "duration": 3.24, "timestamp": "00:00:18", "text": "We're no strangers to love"}]
