  ⸻
  
  HOW IT WORKS
  
  1. Open any YouTube video
  2. Click "Analyze with AI"
  3. Get a full transcript, table of contents with timestamps, a detailed summary, and the ability to chat with the video — all in seconds
  
  ⸻
  
  FEATURES
  
  → AI-Powered Summaries
  Rich, detailed summaries that cover every key point — so thorough you could skip the video entirely and miss nothing.
  
  → Auto-Generated Chapters (Table of Contents)
  Every video gets smart chapters with clickable timestamps. Jump straight to the part you care about — even on videos with zero timestamps.
  
  → Full Transcript with Search
  Searchable, timestamped transcript for every video. Copy it, download it as TXT, or use it to build your own knowledge base.
  
  → Chat with Any Video
  Ask follow-up questions about the video and get answers with timestamp references. Like having a conversation with the content itself.
  
  → Download & Export
  Download transcripts as TXT or summaries as PDF. Take your notes anywhere.
  
  → Powered by GPT-4o Mini
  Fast, reliable, and tuned for video summaries. Bring-your-own-API key support is coming soon.

  WHO IT'S FOR
  
  • Founders & Entrepreneurs — You are constantly learning and need to move fast
  • Professionals — Get the takeaways from webinars, talks, and training videos fast
  • Content creators — Analyze competitor videos, extract hooks, and repurpose content
  • Students — Turn 2-hour lectures into searchable notes in seconds
  • Researchers — Extract key claims, data points, and citations without rewatching
  • Curious minds — Go deeper on any topic without sitting through filler
  
  ⸻
  
  WHY CLARAS?
  
  Most transcript tools just dump raw text. Most summarizers give you a paragraph and call it done. Claras gives you the full stack: transcript + chapters + summary + chat — all from one click, all inside the side panel while you watch.
  
  Built for people who learn from YouTube and want to learn faster. Works with 100% of YouTube videos (even when no caption is available).
  
  ⸻
  
  FREE TO START
  
  Enjoy free unlimited access for 7 days, and then 3 videos per day after that. no credit card required. Upgrade for unlimited access starting at $4.39/month.
  
  ⸻
  
  WHAT'S NEW IN v2.2
  
  → Works on 100% of YouTube videos
  Most transcription tools fail when a video has no captions. Claras now uses AI to transcribe the audio directly — so podcasts, livestreams, raw uploads, and lecture recordings all work seamlessly. As far as we know, Claras is now the most reliable YouTube transcription extension on the market.
  
  → 13 new video languages
  Now supports English, Spanish, + Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Polish, Turkish, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.
  
  → Output in your preferred language (translation)
  Watching a video in one language but want the summary in another? Set your output language once and every summary, chapter title, and chat reply comes back in your chosen language.
  
  → Bring your API + Custom Prompts (Coming soon)
  Bring your own API key + save custom prompts for different video types!
