> Paste a video link. The transcript comes from the video's own captions, free; then one click writes a blog post from it, with a title, H2 sections and lists, in the video's language. Copy it or download Markdown.

## Paste a YouTube link

Paste a public video link; the audio is fetched and written down as text with timestamps, exported as TXT, SRT or VTT.

## How do you turn a YouTube video into a blog post?

Paste the video link above. The transcript is read from the video's own captions, free. Under it, choose Blog post and press Write: a language model turns the transcript into an article with an H1 title, a short opening, H2 sections, lists where the speaker lists things, and a conclusion, in the same language, as Markdown. It is told to use only what the video says. It costs 4 credits for a video up to about 20 minutes, one more for each further 20,000 characters of transcript; a failed run is refunded.

- **Transcript:** Free from captions
- **Blog post:** 4 credits (+1 per 20k characters)
- **Output:** Markdown: H1, H2, lists
- **Also:** Summary, chapters, X thread, newsletter

## From video to article in three steps

1. **Paste the link** A YouTube watch, youtu.be or Shorts link. The transcript appears in seconds when the video has captions; without captions a speech model writes it (3 credits a minute).
2. **Write the post** Blog post is selected under the transcript. Sign in, check the price on the button, press Write. The model answers in about half a minute.
3. **Edit and publish** Copy the Markdown into WordPress, Ghost, Notion or your editor, or download the .md. Read it against the video: the model can still get a detail wrong.

## YouTube to blog questions

### Is it free?

The transcript is free for videos with captions. The blog post costs credits: 4 for a video up to about 20 minutes of speech, one more per further 20,000 characters. 1,500 credits are $15. A run that fails is refunded.

### Will it make things up?

The model is told to write only from the transcript, with no facts, names or numbers the video does not contain. Language models can still slip; read the post against the video before you publish.

### Can I turn someone else's video into a post?

Their words stay theirs. Use it for your own videos, for notes, or quote and link the original; republishing another creator's talk as your article is not what this is for.

### What language is the post in?

The language of the transcript. Pick the caption language in the menu when the video has several tracks.

### Is it good for SEO?

It gives you a structured first draft from your own video, which is a fair start. Add your own intro, links and images; search engines reward what you add, not the conversion.

### What else can it write?

From the same transcript: a summary, YouTube chapters with timestamps, a list of clip moments, an X thread or a newsletter issue, each priced on its button.
