Record & transcribe a YouTube video
Record the YouTube tab you already have open and get a searchable transcript and AI summary — lectures, interviews, webinars. Free 6 h.
How it works
- Open the video in a tab — or paste the link below and we'll open it for you.
- Click Record. Chrome asks what to share: pick your YouTube tab, keep "Also share tab audio" on, then press play.
- Stop — transcript with timestamps and a summary.

FAQ
Is this allowed?
Record content you have the right to record — your own videos, lectures you attend, public talks for personal notes. Respect the creator's terms.
Does SeaMeet join my call as a bot?
No. SeaMeet records the audio your browser already plays — nothing joins the call, no banner appears, no one is notified by us.
What does the free plan include?
A 6-hour lifetime live-transcription pool, the first 15 minutes of every transcript revealed, 2 GB of storage for 30 days. Sync Pro ($12.99/mo billed annually) removes the caps.
What happens after the recording?
You get the transcript, an AI summary with action items, and — as you record more — a Meeting Memory wiki: a page per person, company and topic that compounds across meetings.
