Transcript.you — Instant Transcripts

About

Get a clean, exportable transcript of any YouTube or TikTok video — in one click.

✅ Works on YouTube watch pages, YouTube Shorts, and TikTok video pages
✅ Right-click any video to open its transcript instantly
✅ Or click the extension icon — confirms detection before opening
✅ Or click the in-page "📝 Transcript" button injected next to Like / Share

Why install:
• No more copy-pasting from YouTube's clunky "Show transcript" panel
• TikTok doesn't expose transcripts at all — we extract audio and transcribe via OpenAI Whisper
• Export to TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, or VTT subtitle files
• Translate transcripts to 134+ languages (Pro)
• Free tier available — 1 transcript per day, no signup required
• Bulk transcription support for whole YouTube channels, TikTok playlists, and audio file batches

How it works:
1. Open any YouTube or TikTok video
2. Click the Transcript.you icon (or right-click → "Get transcript with Transcript.you")
3. A new tab opens with the full transcript ready to search, copy, or export

Single purpose
This extension exists to do one thing: let you open the transcript of the YouTube or TikTok video you are currently watching on transcript.you with one click. It does nothing else.

Privacy
This extension only reads the URL of the active tab, and only when you explicitly invoke it (icon click, context-menu click, or in-page button click). It never sends data to any third party other than transcript.you. It does not collect browsing history, run third-party analytics, or set any cookies. Full policy: https://transcript.you/privacy

Permissions explained
• activeTab — read the current tab URL when you click the icon
• tabs — open a new tab with the transcript when you invoke the extension
• contextMenus — add the "Get transcript" item to your right-click menu on YouTube and TikTok
• scripting — inject the in-page "📝 Transcript" button into YouTube and TikTok video pages
• Host access to youtube.com, youtu.be, and tiktok.com — restricts the extension's reach to exactly these two platforms
