FAQ
FAQ
Is the YouTube summarizer still free?
Summaries now live in your free youtubetranscript.dev account. Free accounts get 10 credits every month, and a summary costs 1 credit per ~10,000 characters of transcript, so a typical 10–20 minute video costs 1 credit.
Why do I need an account now?
Summaries run on paid AI models. Tying them to an account keeps the tool fast and fair for everyone, and saves every summary to your history so you can come back to it for free.
How long can the video be?
Any length with captions. Longer transcripts cost a little more, at 1 credit per ~10,000 characters.
What else can I do with the transcript?
Chat with the video, build a mind map, make flashcards, notes and quizzes, or turn it into a blog post in Content Studio.
Is the transcript still free?
Yes. The free Transcript Extractor still gets any video's transcript with no sign-in.
