TikTok transcript
questions, answered.
Source access, export formats, and current availability — the details that decide whether this workflow fits.
How do I get a TikTok transcript?+
Copy the video link from TikTok’s Share menu, paste it into the input, and submit. Public video and short share links are accepted. Sign in to transcribe, edit, copy, export and save account history. Instagram and YouTube links are included in Free when their processing service is connected.
Can I transcribe TikTok videos for free?+
Yes. Sign in to extract unlimited free video transcripts. Paste a public TikTok link to get plain text and timestamped passages. Only existing platform subtitles are extracted; videos without captions are unavailable. Copy, edit and export the result in your browser. Signed-in users can keep account history.
What does a Creator plan include?+
Creator unlocks AI opening hooks, script rewrites and framework analysis. Ordinary transcription is free and unlimited after sign-in. Creator is $8.88 monthly, $59 yearly, or $69 one-time for Lifetime. Paid AI writing is unlimited. Monthly includes website tools; Annual and Lifetime also include API and MCP access. See Plans & billing for checkout availability and payment details.
Which TikTok transcript format should I export?+
Choose TXT for documents or chat, Markdown for source context in Claude Code or Codex, and JSON for your own scripts. Real link results include plain and timestamped text; SRT requires cue start/end timings and is available for the sample or an imported subtitle file. Downloads from the editor include your current text edits. The file preview above offers the same original sample in all four formats.
Can I use a TikTok transcript for captions?+
A TikTok transcript gives you the spoken words. TikTok captions also need cue timings and styling. SRT is a text file containing numbered subtitle cues and their start and end times. Import it into a compatible video editor, check timing against the recording, and choose the caption style there. This workspace does not render or download a captioned video.
Do I need MCP to work with Claude Code or Codex?+
No. Download Agent .md, place the file in your project, and ask the agent to read it with a specific task. MCP is an optional path for direct tool requests. Create a personal key in Workspace → API keys & MCP for manual HTTP MCP access. A Markdown file also works without a connection.
Where do saved transcripts go?+
Log in and use Save to workspace to store your transcript and edits in your account. Open History to revisit it from another session. You can move items to trash and restore them. The original media file is not retained. Earlier browser drafts can be explicitly imported from the workspace.
What source and upload limits should I expect?+
TikTok subtitle extraction supports public videos up to 10 minutes. YouTube supports recorded videos up to 30 minutes; Instagram supports up to 10 minutes when connected. Existing platform captions are required. Audio and video uploads and AI speech transcription are disabled. Profiles, playlists, private content, and batches are not supported. Review extracted captions before publishing.
