Frequently Asked Questions

Does every YouTube video have a transcript?+
No. Transcripts require captions — either auto-generated by YouTube or manually uploaded by the creator. Videos without captions return no transcript.
Are auto-generated transcripts accurate?+
Generally 80-95% accurate for clear speech in English. Technical jargon, accents, and fast speech reduce accuracy. Always review before publishing.
Can I use this on private or unlisted videos?+
Only public videos are accessible. Private and most unlisted videos cannot be fetched without authentication.
