Why sign in only for AI features?
Reading a transcript costs us nothing extra to provide, so we don't gate it.
Generating AI content has a real backend/AI cost and is tied to your account
(so your free-tier usage and Premium status carry across sessions) — that's
the only reason we ask you to sign in, and only when you actually use an AI
feature.
Privacy, in plain language:
• You do not need an account to read transcripts.
• Your transcript is not posted publicly and stays on your device unless you
use an AI feature.
• In the extension, optional anonymous usage analytics are off by default.
You can enable or disable them in extension settings. The limited events never include
transcript text, video IDs or titles, URLs, email addresses, or account IDs.
• Full details: https://youtube-to-transcript.com/privacy
Works on any YouTube video with available captions, including auto-generated
captions and multiple languages.
