About youtube-transcript-api

jdepoix/youtube-transcript-api

This is a python API which allows you to get the transcript/subtitles for a given YouTube video. It also works for automatically generated subtitles and it does not require an API key nor a headless browser, like other selenium based solutions do!

This tool helps you quickly get the text transcript or subtitles from any YouTube video. You simply provide the video ID, and it returns the spoken text along with timestamps. This is useful for researchers, content creators, or anyone needing to analyze or repurpose video content.
