This tool handles
- Public YouTube videos with captions (creator-uploaded or auto-generated)
- 4-tier transcript fallback — youtube-transcript-plus → innertube → Supadata native → Apify starvibe — so most videos extract on first try
- Lectures, interviews, podcasts, tutorials, news segments, conference talks
- Bullet, paragraph, key-takeaways, and TL;DR output formats — all length-capped
- Video title and channel name preserved in the summary header
- Output language matches the user's interface language (EN, RU, others on the way)
Not in scope
- Videos with disabled captions and no auto-captions — there is no transcript to summarise
- Music videos (lyrics-only) — the summary collapses to a thin paragraph; use a lyrics tool instead
- Live streams in progress — Caption stream isn't finalised yet; wait until the stream ends
- Age-restricted, paywalled, or unlisted videos that require login — the public scrapers don't see them
Try the YouTube summariser above on a real video URL. The deep-dive below covers which video types compress best, what the 4-tier transcript fallback actually does, and when a manual watch beats any summary.
