TikTok video → text (transcript + on-screen OCR)

Turn any TikTok video into text. Paste one or more video URLs and get the spoken transcript plus the on-screen text (OCR) in one run. Handles Reels-style short videos, keeps timestamped transcript segments, and works without any login or API key. Common uses: repurposing short-form video into blog posts and captions, feeding hooks into an LLM, or building a searchable archive of a creator's clips.
