Use tool ↗About YouTube Transcript Optimizer
YouTube Transcript Optimizer takes a YouTube video link and turns its audio into a cleaned-up, formatted written document rather than a raw caption file. It can also build a multiple-choice or short-answer quiz from the same video, which suits educators assessing a lecture or creators giving supporters a written companion. Billing is by prepaid credits: processing costs 5 credits for a clip up to 2.5 minutes and then 2 credits per minute, each quiz type adds 10 credits, and credits stay valid for 12 months. New accounts start with 50 free credits.

Pros & cons of YouTube Transcript Optimizer
Useful for a creator who wants a readable document out of a video instead of a raw caption file, and the quiz feature is a distinctive extra for educators. The site is back online with a clear credit table, so you can price a job before uploading; at roughly 16 to 20 cents a minute it is cheap for short videos but adds up on long lectures.
Pros
- Produces a formatted document, not just a raw transcript
- Built-in multiple-choice and short-answer quiz generation from video content
- The pricing page shows the credit cost for each video length before you buy
- Prepaid packs with no subscription, valid for 12 months
Cons
- Per-minute credit pricing makes long videos noticeably more expensive
- No terms, privacy or about page found, and no company name found on the site
Best for
- Creators turning a video into a shareable written document
- Educators generating a quiz from a lecture video
Not for
- High-volume users who need flat-rate pricing rather than per-minute credits
- Teams that need a named vendor and published terms before uploading content
Watch out: The cheapest pack works out to about $0.20 a minute and a quiz adds 10 credits each, so price a long lecture with the site's table before buying.
