Extract Detailed YouTube Video Transcripts and Metadata
Enter a valid YouTube video URL (e.g., or ). Use this for fetching a single video, paired with 'language' for transcript. Do not combine with channel filtering fields.
Language of the subtitles in ISO 639-1 format, e.g., `en`, `fr`. Applicable to both youtube_url and channel_url. Leave blank for default language.
Enter a valid YouTube channel URL (e.g., or ). Use this to fetch videos from the channel, paired with 'max_videos', 'start_date', and 'end_date' for limiting and filtering results.
Maximum number of videos to fetch from the channel (optional, default: 10, range: 1 to 200). Only applicable and used with channel_url; ignored for youtube_url. Combine with start_date/end_date for filtered results.
Start date for filtering videos by upload date (format: YYYY-MM-DD or ISO 8601, optional). Only applicable and used with channel_url; ignored for youtube_url. Videos uploaded on or after this date will be fetched.
End date for filtering videos by upload date (format: YYYY-MM-DD or ISO 8601, optional). Only applicable and used with channel_url; ignored for youtube_url. Videos uploaded on or before this date will be fetched.
Include the full transcript as a plain string without timestamps (transcript_text field). Default is off to reduce response size. Enable this if you need the transcript as a single text block.

This tool extracts comprehensive data from YouTube videos, including timestamped transcripts, plain text transcripts, video titles, descriptions, view counts, like counts, and channel information. Use it for content analysis, SEO research, or competitive intelligence.
### Uncover Insights from YouTube Video Content This tool is designed for anyone needing to delve deeper into YouTube video content, whether for a single video or an entire channel's output. It goes beyond just providing the spoken words, offering a rich dataset that includes not only the transcript but also crucial video and channel metadata. #### Flexible Data Extraction You can choose to extract data from a specific YouTube video by providing its URL, or you can retrieve information from a YouTube channel by supplying the channel's URL. When focusing on a channel, you have the flexibility to filter the videos by upload date using 'Start Date' and 'End Date' fields, and you can limit the total number of videos fetched with the 'Max Videos to Fetch' setting. This allows for targeted research, such as analyzing a competitor's recent content or a creator's output within a specific timeframe. #### Transcript Options for Every Need The tool provides two key transcript formats. By default, you'll receive a detailed, timestamped transcript, breaking down the video's dialogue into segments with their start and end times. This is incredibly useful for precise referencing, content repurposing, or creating subtitles. For those who need a continuous block of text, the 'Include Transcript (w/o timestamps)' option delivers the entire transcript as a single, plain string, perfect for quick reading, text analysis, or feeding into AI models. #### Rich Video and Channel Metadata Beyond transcripts, the tool gathers essential video metadata such as the video's title, description, view count, like count, and duration. You'll also get information about the video's availability, including a list of available subtitle languages and whether the selected transcript was automatically generated. Crucially, it also provides channel-level data like the channel's name and subscriber count, offering a broader context for your analysis.
Decide if you need data from a single video or an entire channel.
For a single video, paste the YouTube video URL into the 'YouTube Video URL' field.
For a channel, paste the YouTube channel URL into the 'YouTube Channel URL' field and optionally set 'Max Videos to Fetch', 'Start Date', and 'End Date' to narrow your results.
Specify the 'Transcript language (ISO 639-1)' if you need subtitles in a particular language, or leave it blank for the default.
If you want the full transcript as a single block of text without timestamps, enable 'Include Transcript (w/o timestamps)'.
Run the tool, and it will deliver a structured dataset containing the video transcripts and comprehensive metadata.
