Used by journalists, newsletter writers, analysts, and academics

Research from video is broken.

You're spending 80% of your research time watching instead of writing

A journalist covering an industry conference watches 6 hours of talks to extract 12 relevant quotes. A newsletter writer covering a trending topic scrubs through 4 podcast interviews looking for the 3 minutes that matter. The information is there — finding it is the problem.

Auto-captions are impossible to search or quote accurately

YouTube auto-captions are riddled with errors and have no punctuation — useless for accurate quotes. Misquoting a source because of a transcription error isn't just embarrassing. For journalists and researchers, it's a credibility problem.

Video content is invisible to your research tools

Your notes app, research database, or knowledge management system can search text. It can't search video. Every hour of expert testimony, every conference panel, every podcast interview — none of it is findable after you watch it. TubeScribed makes it all searchable.

How It Works

Research workflow in three steps.

01

Paste the video URL

Any YouTube video — conference talks, expert interviews, congressional hearings, earnings calls, documentary clips, academic lectures. Paste the URL.

02

Get accurate searchable transcript

OpenAI Whisper produces a highly accurate transcript with proper punctuation and paragraph breaks — suitable for quotation. Every segment is timestamped so you can verify the exact moment of any quote.

03

Work from structured notes

TubeScribed generates a summary, key takeaways, and the full transcript. Search for terms, find quotes instantly, export to your notes app. What took 3 hours of watching takes 3 minutes.
