Terms of Use

Last updated: November 9, 2026

The service

CapSnag fetches the caption track of a YouTube video and presents it as a readable transcript you can copy or download. It is free, and it works only on videos that already have captions.

Acceptable use

Use CapSnag for videos you have the right to transcribe: your own videos, or videos where the creator or the law allows it. Transcripts belong to the video's creators. You are responsible for how you use any transcript you fetch, including respecting the creator's copyright.

Do not use CapSnag to infringe anyone's rights, and do not try to overwhelm or misuse the service.

Availability and accuracy

Captions come from YouTube, and our access depends on YouTube. If YouTube changes or blocks that access, CapSnag may stop working for some or all videos, without notice. Auto-generated captions are produced by YouTube and can contain errors, especially with names and technical terms. CapSnag is provided as-is, without guarantees.
