About

This tool asks my FastAPI service for captions first, then falls back to an async Whisper transcription job when captions are missing or blocked.

Why I built it

YouTube captions are quick when they exist. Local Whisper jobs keep the tool useful when captions are missing, blocked, or unavailable in the language I need.

Status

Beta. Long videos can take several minutes on small workers.
