✅ TubeScribed Transcript

Why TubeScribed transcription is more accurate
OpenAI Whisper — not YouTube's speech recognition
TubeScribed uses OpenAI Whisper — a dedicated high-accuracy speech recognition model trained specifically for transcription. Significantly more accurate than YouTube's auto-caption system, especially for accents, technical terminology, and fast speech.
Claude AI cleanup layer
After Whisper transcribes the audio, Claude AI passes through the entire transcript — adding punctuation, fixing obvious errors, removing filler words (um, uh, you know, like), and structuring the text into readable paragraphs.
Timestamps on every segment
Every paragraph includes a timestamp linking back to that exact moment in the video. Verify quotes, jump to context, link directly to the source moment — all from the transcript.
Supports videos up to 90 minutes
Process any public YouTube video up to 90 minutes. Credit usage scales with video length — always shown before processing. Short videos (under 15 min) use 1 credit. Longer videos use 2–4 credits.
