TubeText · Transcripts · Pay per result. No login. Ready for AI agents. All tools

Quick start (no coding)

1. Click Try for free at the top of this page. A free Apify account is enough – it includes monthly credit.
2. In Bilibili video links, paste one bilibili.com/video/BV… link per line.
3. Click Start. A 3-minute video takes about 20 seconds.
4. When it says Succeeded, open the Output tab and click Export → Excel (or CSV). One row per video: the transcript column has the text; with English summary on you also get titleEn, summaryEn and keyPoints.

Cost: $0.004 per minute of speech – 10 five-minute videos ≈ $0.20. English summaries add $0.005 per video. Music-only and failed videos are free.

Common mistakes

• Pasting a creator page or a search page → paste video links, or chain a Bilibili Scraper dataset with Or: dataset with links.
• A long video was skipped → raise Max length per item (minutes) (default 60).
• You don't read Chinese → turn on English summary.

FAQ

Which links work? Public Bilibili video links (bilibili.com/video/BV…). Links from other sites get a free row pointing to Podcast & Video Transcript, which handles X, Facebook, Loom, podcasts and more.

How accurate is the transcript? It is Whisper speech recognition, not the uploader's subtitles: clear speech comes out well, but names, slang and fast speech can be misheard, and Chinese transcripts may have little punctuation. Check important quotes against the video.

How good are the English summaries? They are AI-generated from the transcript, so they inherit its mistakes. Use them to decide what to watch or research, and check sources before quoting.

Why was a video skipped? It was longer than Max length per item (raise it), private or deleted, music-only, or a song. All of these are free.

Do I need a Bilibili account or cookies? No. Only public, logged-out pages are used.
