Does ScribeAny read text shown inside the video?
ScribeAny transcribes spoken audio. It does not read titles, captions, slides, or other text that only appears in the video frames.
Do I need to extract the audio before uploading a video?
No. Upload the supported video file and ScribeAny processes its spoken audio directly.
Can I paste a public video link instead?
Yes. Switch to Paste link for a public YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, or Facebook video. Private, deleted, restricted, or inaccessible links can fail.
Can I translate and summarize a 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.
What is the difference between a transcript and SRT or VTT?
A transcript is the editable spoken text. SRT and VTT are separate timed text files for compatible players and editors; they do not contain the video or permanently add subtitles to it.
Can I edit the transcript before downloading?
Yes. Edit the text directly, or search for a word or phrase and use Replace all to update matching text. Downloads use the text currently shown in your transcript.
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. Uploaded files are sent to a transcription service for processing; this isn’t an offline tool.
