About Tildew: Free YouTube Summary & Transcript

You just sat through a two hour lecture. Quick, what was said at minute 47? ๐Ÿ˜ Yeah. Nobody remembers. And nobody is going to rewatch it. Tildew fixes that. Open any YouTube video, open the side panel, and get a full transcript plus clean, typed, timestamped notes you can actually revise from. Too long? Didn't watch? Tildew. ๐ŸŽฌ โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐ŸŽง IT LISTENS. IT DOES NOT SCRAPE CAPTIONS. This is the part that matters. Almost every other transcript tool just copies YouTube's caption file. No captions, no transcript. Auto captions in Hindi or Urdu? You get word salad. Tildew listens to the actual audio, the way a person would. Which means: โœ… Videos with captions turned off still work โœ… Hindi, Hinglish and Urdu speech comes out clean โœ… Accents and background music do not break it โœ… Speakers get told apart in interviews and podcasts If a tool has ever handed you an empty transcript, this is why it happened, and this is the fix. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐Ÿ“ NOTES THAT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING AT A recipe video and a physics lecture should not produce the same notes. Tildew recognises 19 types of video and writes accordingly. ๐Ÿ“š Lecture โ†’ definitions, formulas, worked examples, exam tips ๐Ÿ”ง Tutorial โ†’ numbered steps, exact settings, the gotchas people skip ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Podcast โ†’ who said what, and the actual argument โญ Review โ†’ pros, cons, verdict, price ๐Ÿณ Cooking โ†’ ingredients, quantities, method ๐Ÿ’ฐ Finance โ†’ numbers, claims, risks ๐Ÿ“ฐ News โ†’ what happened, who said it, what is disputed ๐Ÿ’ป Tech โ†’ specs in plain words, who should buy it, how it compares โ€ฆand 11 more types. You can also just pick the type yourself if Tildew guesses wrong. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” โฑ๏ธ EVERY TIMESTAMP IS A DOOR See something in your notes you want to hear for yourself? Tap the timestamp. The video jumps straight there. No scrubbing. No dragging the bar back and forth hunting for the bit you half remember. ๐ŸŽฏ โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐ŸŒ TWENTY LANGUAGES Watch in one language, take notes in another. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ English, Hindi, Hinglish, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Urdu ๐ŸŒ Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Thai Watch an English lecture, revise in Tamil.

Paid plans go up to 4 hours: full lectures, full podcasts, full conference talks, full match analysis. The longer and denser the video, the more Tildew saves you. A 12 minute video you can just watch. A three hour lecture is what this is for. ๐Ÿ’ช โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” ๐Ÿ“‹ TAKE IT WITH YOU Copy the notes or the full transcript in one click.

Every new account gets 2 hours of video free every month: Quick and Detailed notes, videos up to 60 minutes, your library on tildew.com and PDF export. No card needed, and nothing charges you automatically. Your free time comes back every month. Free time is for accounts that have never had a paid plan. ๐ŸŽ When you want more, there is one paid plan, Standard: up to 15 hours of video a month (5 hours on India Standard), videos up to 4 hours, and Deep notes. Prices are set automatically for your region: $6.99 a month or $59 a year, ยฃ6.99 or ยฃ59.99 in the UK, โ‚น179 or โ‚น1,799 in India, $4.99 or $42 in much of Asia. Here is the honest reason there is a paid plan: listening to audio costs us real money on every single video. We would rather charge a fair price than pay for it with ads or by selling your data. ๐Ÿ™‚ Every summary uses the length of the video plus a small fixed amount, and the panel shows the cost before you start. Some videos cost 25% less to summarise. Plan time resets every month. Subscribers can add top-up time (1 h 44 min for $2.99 / ยฃ2.99 / โ‚น179), and top-up time does not expire. If a summary fails, it costs you nothing. ๐Ÿ”‹ โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” โ“ QUICK ANSWERS Does it work if the video has no captions? Yes. That is the entire point. ๐ŸŽง Does it work on Hindi and Hinglish videos? Yes, and it is genuinely good at them. Can I get notes in a different language โ€ฆ
