Turn public YouTube, TikTok and Instagram video links into readable text, without an account. Copy transcripts or download TXT and SRT; TikTok and Instagram also support VTT. YouTube uses available captions, TikTok uses captions or speech recognition, and Instagram uses speech recognition. A focused tool for revisiting lectures, interviews and your own videos.
WatchToText is for the moments when a useful video would be easier to revisit as text. Paste a public YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link, then copy the words or download a transcript. No account is required. Availability and accuracy depend on the source video and its captions or audio. We'd love feedback on the reading and export experience, and examples of public links that do not work as expected.
