Copy the share link from any public TikTok, paste it into TranscriptX, and you’ll have a clean transcript in about 20 seconds. Captions are not the same as a transcript.

Unlisted YouTube videos work like normal — paste the link, get a transcript. Private videos need a login we don’t have. Here’s what works and what doesn’t.

Reels work with a link paste. Stories are ephemeral and auth-gated, so you’ll need a screen recording. Here’s the honest version of both.

Loom has captions but no clean export. Paste the share link into TranscriptX and you’ll have a full, copyable transcript in under a minute.

Three Vimeo privacy modes, three paths. Vimeo’s own captions are paywalled on Plus+ — here’s how to skip that.

VOD for reuploads, clip for highlights, both for copyright disputes — paste the Twitch URL, get a transcript in under a minute.

Turn a 45-minute webinar into a blog post, a LinkedIn summary, and three clip captions in under 90 minutes. End-to-end workflow most marketing teams never wrote down.

Gong and Fathom are great and expensive. If you just need the transcript to pull themes, quotes, and evidence — the cheap version is this.

Spaces recordings are short-lived and buried inside the X app. Here’s the workflow for grabbing a transcript before the replay expires.

That 6-minute voice note from your aunt? Get it to text in 30 seconds. Works for personal memos, legal evidence, and journalism source files.

Spotify blocks most scrapers. The fix: find the podcast’s RSS feed or Apple Podcasts listing, grab the direct MP3, paste that into TranscriptX.

iPhone has built-in transcription for Voice Memos but nothing for video files. Here’s the no-app flow: share sheet → Drive → TranscriptX, in about 60 seconds.

Shorts often have no captions because they’re too short to auto-caption. TranscriptX handles them the same as any YouTube URL — paste and go.

Reddit-hosted videos (v.redd.it URLs) are notoriously hard because audio and video live in separate files. Here’s the reliable path.

TranscriptX just shipped MCP support. Your AI can now transcribe any video URL, browse a creator's recent uploads, and re-run a transcript in a different language — without you ever leaving the chat.
