Much faster runs. Up to 20 videos are transcribed at a time, and a single video comes back in about a second.
Fewer videos come back as "couldn't be loaded right now".
Rows arrive as each video finishes, so they can be in a different order from your list. Every row carries its url and videoId.
Auto-detect returns the language spoken in the video. It used to follow YouTube's default captions for English-speaking viewers, so a Japanese video could come back in English.
Type any YouTube caption code in Transcript language, such as iw, zh-Hant, pt-BR or es-419. Hebrew and Filipino now work, with either iw/he or fil/tl, and zh-TW, zh-HK and zh-CN pick Traditional or Simplified Chinese.
Human-made captions now win over auto-generated ones even when they carry a regional code, so en (or Auto-detect) gets human-made en-GB captions instead of the auto-generated English track.
New: Fallback languages. Codes to try in order when a video lacks your first choice; add auto to end with the spoken language.
New: Caption type. Accept any captions, only human-made ones, or only auto-generated ones.
Word counts are now real word counts for Japanese, Chinese, Thai and other languages written without spaces.
Auto-generated SRT and WebVTT lines no longer overlap the next line. Human-made subtitles keep their original timing.
Styled captions (outlined or colored text) no longer repeat every line twice in the transcript.
Rows without a transcript show their reason in the Output table's Note column.
The run summary now counts links that aren't single videos and links left at your spending limit.

Many videos per run. The input is now videoUrls, a list of links or video IDs, replacing the single videoUrl.
Lower price: $2 per 1,000 transcripts.
A video without a transcript no longer stops the run: it gets its own free row explaining why.
