Features
Everything you need, right on YouTube
One-click transcription
Click the EasyTranscriber button on any YouTube video page. The full transcript appears in seconds with no URL copying and no tab switching.
AI summaries
Get key takeaways, chapter breakdowns, and concise summaries. Turn a 2-hour lecture into a 30-second read.
Copy & export

Multi-language support
Works with any language YouTube supports captions for. Transcribe videos in English, Spanish, Japanese, Hindi, and 50+ more.
Instant results
No waiting for audio processing. We pull captions directly from YouTube when available, falling back to AI transcription when they're not.

We never track your browsing. The extension only activates on YouTube pages and sends only the video ID, never your watch history.
