Want to transcribe a YouTube video? Some online tools exist, but won’t give you nearly as accurate results as good old-fashioned video transcription! YouTube transcription is always the first step in creating a perfectly-captioned video or generating voice-to-text of a recording.
What’s more, transcription adds real value to your video content by making it easily searchable online. This helps reach a wider and more diverse (as well as inclusive!) audience, keeping you at the forefront of video marketing trends.
Get YouTube transcription videos for personal reference, or add the transcripts to your YouTube video descriptions for greater reach, visibility, and accessibility. It’s a great learning tool for students, researchers, professors and business professionals, who can read the text and search for keywords with ease — all it takes is a few simple steps!
After signing up or logging in to your TranscribeMe account, just follow these instructions to order affordable, accurate YouTube transcriptions online:

2. After a few minutes, refresh the page and the status should read “Ready for Transcription.”
Click the Transcribe icon next to your file. Please consult our Customer Portal Walkthrough from Step 6 onward if you have any questions about completing your order.
