PixScript turns video and audio into text. Paste a YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram Reels URL and get a timestamped transcript in seconds. Upload MP3 or MP4 files for podcast transcription. Works with full-length YouTube videos, not just short-form clips.
Export transcripts as SRT subtitles for Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut. Download VTT for web video players, PDF for sharing, or plain text. AI can summarize the transcript, rewrite it into a blog post or social caption, and translate it into 50+ languages.
Other things it does: HD video download without watermarks, cover image download, transcript history with folders, and bulk URL processing (paste up to 100 URLs at once on Business).
Most transcription tools only support one platform, or skip subtitle export entirely. PixScript covers YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram Reels from one interface, with SRT/VTT export that competitors like Tokscript don't offer.
OneTube turns YouTube comment sections into editorial and business intelligence. Unlike SEO suites that optimize packaging, or stats references that show counts, OneTube reads the demand side: every comment on any public channel, classified by theme, sentiment, and intent. Spy Mode lets you add competitor channels without ownership or permission; scheduled syncs build history so recurring audience requests become visible as trends. Each Pulse report surfaces named discussion themes, the questions viewers keep asking, content ideas extracted from verbatim requests, and intent signals like purchase interest and sponsorship inquiries. Reports are generated in the dominant language of the channel's comments. Plans from $9/mo; white-label PDF client reports on Studio and above; client workspaces on Agency tiers; 7-day full trial with no credit card.

Next.js, Vercel, AI speech-to-text models for transcription.
PixScript's answer
It covers YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram Reels from one tool as most competitors only handle one platform. And it exports SRT/VTT subtitle files, which tools like Tokscript don't offer at all. You also get timestamps on every plan, including the free tier.
PixScript's answer
Tokscript only does plain text, no subtitle export. Otter.ai is built for meetings, not video URLs. Descript costs $24/month and requires uploading files manually. PixScript handles all three major video platforms via URL, exports SRT subtitles ready for any video editor, and starts at $9/month. The free tier gives you 10 transcripts a month.
PixScript's answer
Content creators who repurpose video into blog posts and social captions. Video editors who need SRT subtitle files. Students who want text from lecture videos. Podcasters turning episodes into show notes. Basically anyone who needs text from video or audio without typing it out.
PixScript's answer
I kept watching long YouTube videos just to grab a single quote or find a specific part someone mentioned. Copying from YouTube auto-captions was messy, and there was no easy way to export them as subtitle files.
So I built a tool that takes any video URL and gives you clean, timestamped text you can actually use.
