Frequently asked questions

How do I transcribe a YouTube video for free? +

Paste the link to a YouTube video and click Process. In 1-3 minutes you get the text. No sign-up — 3 videos a day for free.

How accurate is the transcription? +

95-99% for clear speech. We use Whisper by OpenAI — the most accurate model in the world. Support for 98+ languages, including Ukrainian.

How long does processing take? +

It depends on the length: a 5-minute video takes ~30 seconds, an hour-long one 2-3 minutes. Registered users get a priority queue.

What if the audio quality is poor? +

Whisper by OpenAI handles even noisy audio. With background music or heavy noise, accuracy may drop to 85-90%, but the result is still better than doing it by hand.

Does it work with Ukrainian surzhyk / mixed speech? +

Yes, the model detects the language automatically and recognizes even a Ukrainian/Russian mix. Timestamps are preserved.

Are my files stored? +

Files are automatically deleted after 24 hours. We do not review or share your data with third parties. Transcriptions are private — no one but you can see them.

Do you create (generate) videos or animations? +

No. VideoScribe.tech turns existing video and audio into text (transcription, subtitles, summaries). We don't generate videos and we're not affiliated with videoscribe.co, the whiteboard animation software.

What if I'm not happy with the result? +

Free videos carry no risk — just try them. For paid ones, contact support within 24 hours and we'll refund you.

Why not a subscription? +

We know subscriptions are annoying. That's why VideoScribe is a one-time payment. Pay once, use it. No auto-charges, no card linking.

How is it different from free YouTube subtitles? +

YouTube generates subtitles automatically, but without speaker separation, export to SRT/PDF, translation, or text search. VideoScribe gives you all of that.
