YouTube Transcript Scraper - Subtitles, Captions and Full Text (No API Key)
Extract transcripts from any public YouTube video. Paste URLs, get clean time-coded segments plus full text back as JSON, CSV or Excel. No YouTube Data API key, no OAuth, no cookies.
What you get
- Full transcript text and time-coded segments
- Auto-generated and human-written captions
- Any available caption language, chosen per run
- Video metadata: title, channel, duration, views
- cleanMarkdown output, ready to drop into an LLM or RAG pipeline
- Batch runs: hundreds of videos at once
Input
| Field | Type | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| urls | array | required | YouTube video URLs |
| languages | array | ["en"] | Preferred caption languages, ISO 639-1 |
| formatTranscript | boolean | true | Add a formatted full-text transcript alongside the segments |
| proxyType | string | RESIDENTIAL | Datacenter is faster and cheaper, residential is more reliable |
| proxyConfiguration | object | - | Apify proxy settings |

Output
Each result contains videoId, url, subtitles (full text plus time-coded segments), metadata (title, channel, duration, views), available_languages, subtitle_stats and cleanMarkdown.
Pricing
$5.00 per 1,000 results plus $0.005 per run start. Platform usage is included, so there is no separate compute or proxy charge. A 100-video run costs about 50 cents.
