Bring YouTube captions into research, notes and video summaries with the YouTube Transcript Scraper Apify Actor. Supply videos, channels or playlists and receive transcript text, timestamped segments, SRT or VTT, alongside video and channel metadata. Translation is optional.
A YouTube account is unnecessary. An Apify account pays for successful transcripts; videos without available captions do not incur a transcript charge.

This Actor returns captions and metadata. It does not download audio or video, search YouTube by keyword, or create speech-to-text for a video without captions. Auto-generated captions can contain transcription mistakes.
On Apify's Free plan, 1,000 successful transcripts cost $5. Paid-plan rates are $4.00 to $4.67 per 1,000. The default maxVideos is 50 per channel or playlist; explicitly supplied video links are all included.
The hosted tool is published as io.github.harshmaur/youtube-transcript-scraper in the official MCP Registry.
