I'm Edmund, and I built transcribr because I wanted a reliable way to bulk extract transcripts from YouTube to feed into LLMs to assist with my daily workflow as an indie hacker and content creator. I was building a RAG system and needed transcripts from hundreds of YouTube videos. The options were: - Copy-paste one video at a time (took forever) - Use YouTube's API (rate limits, complex setup) - Pay $100+/month for enterprise tools So I built what I needed: a simple Chrome extension that bulk downloads transcripts from entire channels and playlists, all within the native UI of YouTube. Core features: - Bulk extraction: Download thousands of video transcripts at once, export as a .zip or a combined text file. - AI chat built-in: Ask questions about any video with exact timestamp references Who it's for: - AI developers needing training data for RAG/fine-tuning - Content creators repurposing their videos into blogs/newsletters - Researchers analyzing video content at scale - Marketers studying competitor strategies I'd love your feedback! What features would make this more useful for you?
