Frequently Asked Questions
What is Transcript AI?
Transcript AI is a free tool that turns any YouTube video into a text transcript in seconds. Paste a link, get the transcript, then let AI summarize it, translate it, or answer your questions about the content.
Is Transcript AI free?
Yes — completely free, no sign-up, no daily limits. The SubKun browser extension is also free to install.
How does Transcript AI get the transcript so fast?
For YouTube videos we extract the captions that already exist (auto-generated or uploaded by the creator) and clean them up — no audio re-transcription needed, so even multi-hour videos load in seconds.
Can I transcribe MP3 or audio files with AI?
Yes — open SubKun Transcript AI and upload any MP3, audio, or video file. High-speed AI transcription returns the full transcript fast, with an instant summary and a built-in chatbot for follow-up questions.
Can AI summarize the transcript for me?
Yes. Copy the transcript into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini — or skip the copy-paste: SubKun gives you an instant AI summary, both for uploaded files and while watching YouTube.
Can I ask the AI questions about the video?
Yes. SubKun's built-in chatbot (powered by Claude) lets you ask deep follow-up questions and discuss the content — on the upload page, or right on YouTube with the extension.
Which languages does Transcript AI support?
We extract captions in any language the video has, and the interface is available in 11 languages. The transcript can then be translated into any language with AI.
Does it work for long videos, podcasts, and livestreams?
Yes — multi-hour podcasts, lectures, and livestream replays all work; there's no length limit. Livestream replays need auto-captions to finish processing first (5–30 minutes after the stream ends).
