About BananaLingo for Facebook
Turn any captioned Facebook video into a ready-to-publish article.
BananaLingo reads the captions a Facebook video already carries, shows them as a
clickable transcript beside the player, translates them on your own device, and
hands them to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini as a structured article — intro,
headings and conclusion included.
WHAT IT DOES
• Transcript panel on reels, watch pages and video permalinks
• Click any line to jump the video to that moment
• Follows along as the video plays, and searches the transcript as you type
• On-device translation into 15 languages — free, private, no API key
• Copy with or without timestamps, straight into Sheets or Excel
• One click to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini with the prompt already written
WORKS ON CAPTIONED VIDEOS ONLY
BananaLingo reads the captions a video already has — it does not listen to the
audio. Videos without captions have nothing for it to read. Look for the CC
button in the player.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no tracking, no servers of ours. Translation runs inside your own
browser. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you press an AI button yourself — and
then it goes to the AI site you chose, never to us.
