## Changelog

### 1.0 (2026-10-22)

- First release: YouTube (videos, Shorts, playlists, channels), TikTok, Instagram Reels, X/Twitter videos, podcast RSS feeds, Apple Podcasts links and direct audio/video files.
- Native captions first (YouTube manual, auto and translated captions, platform subtitles, Podcasting 2.0 transcripts), with AI speech-to-text fallback through Apify's OpenRouter proxy (Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite by default) or Whisper with your own OpenRouter key.
- Output as text, timestamped segments, SRT and VTT, with optional saved subtitle files.
- Optional AI summary, key points, chapters with timestamps, quotes and topics in any language.
- Per-URL error rows with codes and hints (free), automatic residential proxy fallback, model fallback on rate limits, and migration-safe resume.
- Fixes before publishing: a missing fallback speech-to-text model no longer disables speech-to-text for the whole run; `sttModel` now reports the model that actually transcribed each item; clearer access-refused messages; long-audio speech-to-text marked Beta.
