Q. How does the quote finder work?
A. We extract the video's full transcript, then search it for your query. Each match shows surrounding context and the exact timestamp you can click to jump to.
Q. What's the difference between exact, fuzzy, and semantic search?
A. Exact finds the literal words. Fuzzy handles typos and close variations. Semantic understands meaning — search 'happy' and find 'joyful' or 'ecstatic' too.
Q. Can I share a link that starts at a specific timestamp?
A. Yes. Each search result includes a shareable YouTube link with the ?t= parameter set to that timestamp.
Q. Does it work on videos without captions?
A. It works on any video with auto-generated or manually uploaded captions — about 99% of public YouTube content.
Q. How fast is the search?
A. Transcript extraction takes 2-3 seconds. After that, searching within it is instant.
