Transkripe is a web app that turns a public YouTube URL into a readable transcript and lets you generate AI summaries, notes, key points, quizzes and content drafts from that transcript.
Transkripe checks YouTube captions first. If captions are missing, AI audio transcription can create the transcript after credit confirmation.

After the transcript loads, turn it into summaries, study notes or key points. Every output stays grounded in the visible transcript.

Use one transcript for blog drafts, newsletters, social posts, quizzes and scripts. AI outputs use credits and stay tied to the source text.

Turn one YouTube video into a transcript, summary, notes, key points, quiz questions or reusable content drafts.

Accurate. Fast. Reliable.
Supports all major languages worldwide.
I built Transkripe because getting useful text from a YouTube video should feel simple, not like another complicated workflow.
Captions stay free when they are available, AI transcription uses credits only after confirmation, and failed AI transcription returns reserved credits.
No hidden fees. Just a cleaner way to read, copy, download and reuse transcripts.
