  2. Press Get transcripts. Videos are processed in parallel with live progress, and anything already in your library is served instantly from cache.
  3. Export. Download a ZIP with one file per video, or a single combined document — TXT, Markdown, SRT, VTT, CSV, JSON, or AI-ready.

What people do with a conference playlist transcripts

The common use is to find which talks are worth watching before spending hours on them. Because the combined export carries each video's title, channel, date, and link in a header, an AI model can cite which video an answer came from instead of blending everything together.

Why bulk matters

Most transcript tools handle one video at a time, which is fine for a single clip and useless for an archive. Pulling a conference playlist one URL at a time is the actual problem — BulkTranscripts exists to do the whole playlist in one job.

Questions

Is there a limit on how many a conference playlist videos I can transcribe?

You can run a whole channel or playlist in one job. Large archives are processed in batches with live progress, and everything you have already pulled is cached so re-runs are instant.

Do I need to sign in?

No. Paste a link and go.

What if a video has no captions?

It is skipped and reported in the results, and the rest of the job continues. Videos with creator-written captions are preferred over auto-generated ones when both exist.

Can I get one file instead of hundreds?

Yes. Choose the combined export to get the entire channel or playlist as a single document, which is what you want for NotebookLM, ChatGPT, or Claude.
