YouTube Video Transcripts API
Our API allows you to programmatically fetch transcripts for YouTube videos. You have two options to use the API:
1. Deploy on Your Own
You can clone our open-source API server and deploy it to your own infrastructure (e.g., Cloudflare Workers). This gives you full control over the API and its usage.
Steps to deploy:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/youtube-transcript-plus/youtube-transcript-api.git
- Install dependencies:
npm install
(or yarn/pnpm) - Run locally for development:
npm run dev
- Deploy to Cloudflare: Follow the instructions in the README after
wrangler login
andnpm run deploy
.
2. Use Our Hosted API (Invite-Only)
We offer a hosted version of the API which is currently invite-only. If you're interested in using our managed solution, please submit your email below, and we'll get back to you regarding your needs and access.
