Why choose Free YT Bulk Transcripts

- Excel and CSV with one row per video (title, link, word count, full text) or one row per caption line, ready for research and spreadsheets (see how).
- Pick the caption language, so Hindi, Telugu or Tamil videos give you their own captions even when English ones exist (Indian languages).
- Try 10 videos a day without any account, then get 25 free credits with a free account.
