Most transcript tools just copy captions, so they fail on the videos that don't have any. Scriber uses captions when they exist and transcribes the audio when they don't. Paste a link, get clean, copy-ready text in seconds. No sign-up to try.
Tried it on an old podcast episode that has no captions and it pulled clean paragraphs in a few seconds, way better than running it through a separate speech tool. No signup was a nice touch too.
@serpil834703 Hi Serpil,
You tried Scriber on an old live stream with no captions when it launched on Product Hunt. That's a case I hadn't tested, so it was genuinely useful to see it work.
One question if you have a minute: did you use it again after that day, and if not, what stopped you? I'd rather know than assume.

Love how it doesn't force a sign-up just to grab a transcript, and the fallback to actual audio transcription when captions are missing is genuinely useful for niche creators.
@murathyzm Thanks Murat. Niche creators are exactly who I had in mind. The videos that never get captioned are almost always the smaller channels, and they're the ones every caption-copying tool quietly fails on.
The no-signup part was a deliberate trade too. Getting a transcript is rarely the goal in itself, so putting an account in front of it felt like charging a toll on the way to somewhere else.
