In their own words
Scribiz
Scribiz turns a video link or file into a transcript, on-screen text, summary, and chapters. It uses available captions when suitable and listens to audio when captions are missing or poor. Watch mode reads visible material such as slides and code, adding timestamps to notes. Results can be exported in SRT, VTT, TXT, Markdown, or JSON. YouTube, direct media links, podcast feeds, and uploads work best; TikTok, X, and Vimeo are best effort on the web, while Instagram links usually require uploading a file. The web tool accepts files up to 100 MB and about 50 minutes of audio. Scribiz says local video processing sends audio chunks, and may send a small low-resolution copy for Watch, rather than uploading an entire video. Media is deleted when a job ends, while results expire after 24 hours or after 30 days with an account. Its HTTP API creates asynchronous jobs from links or uploads and exposes status, results, and progress events; webhooks are unavailable, so users can poll or follow the event stream. A remote MCP server supports Claude, Cursor, and Codex. The free plan includes daily and monthly usage limits. Pro costs $10 a month; Mac Lifetime costs $99, paid once and is not on sale yet.
