Public video link questions.
Do I need an account?
No account is required to transcribe, translate, summarize, edit, copy, or download in this preview.
Which public video links can I use?
Use a public YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X or Twitter, or Facebook video link. The link must match a supported video or post URL rather than a profile or feed page.
Does the video link need to be public?
Yes. The service must be able to open the video without access to a private account. Private, deleted, restricted, or unavailable posts can fail.
What happens when I submit a supported link?
ScribeAny requests available captions first and can ask the service to generate a transcript from the spoken audio when captions are unavailable and the media can be accessed.
Can I translate and summarize a linked video transcript?
Yes. The source language is detected automatically. You can request an editable translation, summary, and key points before starting, then review them against the transcript.
Can I edit and export the result?
Yes. Search and edit the transcript, replace repeated text, then export TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT, or CSV from the result page.
What should I do when a video link returns no transcript?
Check that the post is public and still available. If you have the recording, use the video or audio upload page instead.
How do I keep my transcript and edits?
Download your transcript before refreshing or leaving this page. This preview keeps edits only in the current page and doesn’t provide an account library.
Have a public video link?
Paste the link to receive editable text, optional AI notes, and the export formats you need.
