Facebook Video Transcript and Summary

Paste the link to a public Facebook video or reel and get the key points with timestamps, and the full text of what is said.

YouTube and Shorts read the captions. TikTok and Reels are transcribed from the audio.

What one Facebook link gives you

  • What do I get?An AI summary with a timestamp on every point, the full text with timestamps, and answers to your questions about the video.
  • What is free?Once a day, a video up to 10 minutes long – the summary and the text, whole. Longer videos show their price straight away.
  • What does it cost?5 credits a minute for the summary and the text together, at least 10 credits a video – a 20-minute video is 100 credits.
  • Which links work?Watch links, page videos, reels, fb.watch and share links, from www, m. and web. – any link to a public video.
  • Which videos?Public ones only. A private or deleted video cannot be read, and you are told so plainly instead of being charged.

How to get the transcript of a Facebook video

  1. Copy the link of a public Facebook video or reel.
  2. Paste it into the field above – the length and the price appear at once.
  3. Read the summary with its timestamps, then the full text, and ask a question about it.

A summary of a Facebook video, with the minute of every point

Facebook shows no transcript for most videos. This page gives you one, plus the summary: the key points in the order they were said, each with its timestamp, so you can find the part you need without watching the whole video.

Why the summary comes first

A twenty-minute video takes twenty minutes to watch and about a minute to read as a summary. So the summary comes first – the key points in order, each with the minute it was said – and the full text is right under it for when you need the exact words. Both come from one recognition, charged once.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get a transcript of a Facebook video?

Paste the link on this page. The video is found by its link, the speech is recognised straight from Facebook – nothing is downloaded to your device – and the summary is written from it, with the full text under it.

Is it free?

Once a day a video up to 10 minutes long is free, summary and text, with no account – the same daily allowance as the free preview of a file. A longer video is 5 credits a minute, at least 10.

How long can the video be?

Up to 4 hours. Reels and short clips take seconds; a long live-stream recording takes a few minutes.

Which languages does it work with?

The speech is recognised in the language it is spoken in, and the summary is written in that language. Once it is ready, you can switch the summary to any of 14 languages – free, with the timestamps kept.

Can it read private Facebook videos?

No. Only public videos and reels can be read – the same ones anybody can watch without logging in. A private or deleted video is named as such, and nothing is charged.

Can I copy or save the text?

Yes. Copy the summary or save it as a file; the full text can be saved as .txt once a day for free, and SRT and VTT come with a plan.
