About ScriptGecko

ScriptGecko is an online tool that generates timestamped transcripts from public YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok videos. Users paste a supported video URL, and the service automatically detects the platform, extracts spoken audio, and produces a readable transcript with timestamps. The output can be copied or downloaded as a TXT file. ScriptGecko is designed for creators, researchers, marketers, and teams who need searchable notes or content drafts from social media videos. The service offers a free daily allowance for guests and signed-in users, with paid monthly plans for higher usage.
