Chrome Extension Beta

Turn the short video you are watching into text

Open ReelToText beside Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or TikTok. Generate, copy, and download transcripts without switching your workflow.

Chrome Web Store release is being prepared. The current beta uses Chrome Developer mode.

Native side panel

Capture the current supported URL, then keep the transcript beside the video.

Minimal permissions

No social-media cookies, page content, passwords, or payment details are read.

One ReelToText account
