For Your Workflow, Not Against It

Need timed captions for video editing? Choose SRT. Building an accessible web player? VTT is ready. Just need a transcript for analysis? Export as plain TXT. The choice is yours, for every single file.

PRIVACY FIRST

Your Data is Yours. Period.

We believe privacy is a fundamental right. YTVidHub processes everything in-browser or on our server momentarily. We never store, log, or analyze your URLs. No accounts, no tracking, just a pure and simple tool.

Is this YouTube subtitle downloader completely free?

YTVidHub is free for single downloads and includes 5 daily credits for bulk operations. Professional plans are available for high-volume data needs.

What URL formats are supported?

We support standard YouTube video URLs, playlist URLs, and channel page URLs. For bulk processing via file upload, ensure each URL is on a new line in a simple `.txt` or `.csv` file. The system automatically filters out invalid or duplicate links.

What language are subtitles in?

YTVidHub supports ALL languages available on YouTube. This includes manually uploaded captions by the creator (highest quality) and auto-generated subtitles for languages like Chinese (Mandarin), Spanish, German, and more. IMPORTANT: The accuracy of non-English auto-generated captions can be low. For reliable data in all languages, we recommend our Pro AI Transcription service (available with credits).

Why do some videos show "No Subtitles"?

Our tool prioritizes downloading *manually uploaded or generated* captions. Videos that only have YouTube's auto-generated captions are filtered out to ensure the highest quality and accuracy of the downloaded text.

Is my usage data stored?

No. We operate with a core commitment to user privacy. The system processes your request in memory to generate the output file, but all URL inputs and file contents are immediately discarded upon job completion. We do not maintain any logs of your activity.
