1. 00:00Open the converter

   Want just the sound from a YouTube video? Here's how to save it as an MP3 with Transcript. Open the YouTube to MP3 converter at transcript.im. It works right in your browser.

2. 00:19Paste a video link

   On YouTube, copy the video's link. Then paste it into the box. Click Get Video. First you see what you're about to save: the title, the thumbnail, the channel, and the length. This is a public NASA recap, one minute and forty seconds long.

3. 00:37Pick a bitrate

   Next, open the bitrate menu and pick the one you want. A higher bitrate keeps more detail, and makes a bigger file.

4. 00:52Save the MP3

   Then click Download MP3. When it's ready, the MP3 saves to your device on its own. You can see the file name, its size, and the bitrate. If you want the picture too, there's a button to download the same video as an MP4. Now scroll down a little.

5. 01:14Read the transcript preview

   Below the download, there's a transcript preview. Each line has a timestamp, so you can see what's said, or shown, and when. Read the full transcript opens the whole text, and there's a button to summarize it with AI. So that's it. Paste a link, pick a bitrate, and save the MP3.
