Hi Product Hunt! I built this update after seeing how often creators, researchers, and students needed the text from a YouTube video without uploading a file or creating another account. Paste a public YouTube URL and Harku returns a timestamped transcript in seconds. You can read it in the browser or export TXT, SRT, and VTT. The tool supports 60+ languages and is free to try without signing up. I'd especially value feedback on transcript readability, export formats, and the languages you use most.
