Video to Notes
Video tools
No sign-up, no watermark, and nothing uploaded — every file tool below reads your file on your own device.
Start with the checker if you are not sure what is wrong with your file: it reads the real specs and tells you which upload target rejects it and why, then sends you to the tool that fixes it.
Start here
Read a video's resolution, aspect ratio, duration, file size, bitrate, codec, frame rate and audio, then check it field by field against the published upload specs for YouTube, Shorts, TikTok, Instagram, Meta ads, LinkedIn and X. It also carries the platform video specs reference those checks come from.
Fix it
Cut the file size and resolution when a video is too big to upload.
Re-encode MOV, WebM, MKV, or AVI as MP4 (H.264) when the container or codec is wrong.
Shorten a clip that runs past a platform's length limit.
Remove the audio track without touching the picture.
Take something out
Save the sound as MP3, M4A or WAV.
Grab a single moment as a JPG or PNG.
Turn a short range into an animated GIF.
Convert an audio file between MP3, M4A and WAV.
Transcripts and YouTube
The file tools here read the file in your browser too, but they send the extracted audio to be transcribed. The YouTube tools read the captions of a video from its link.
Transcribe an MP4 to plain text you can copy or download as .txt.
Get a transcript from a video file, or from a YouTube video that has captions.
Paste a YouTube link and get a summary, key points and a timeline from its captions.
Get chapters for a video description from a link or a file, and make links to any moment.
Get the text of a YouTube video that has captions, one timestamped line per caption.
Need the words?
The tools above change the file. If you want what was said in it, Video to Notes transcribes a video and writes a summary, key points and a timeline you can download.
