Turn hour-long lectures, podcasts, and tutorials into a 30-second read. Concise summaries, bullet points, or detailed breakdowns — pick the format that fits how you study.
Some of the most useful content on YouTube — academic lectures, podcast interviews, conference talks — runs for an hour or more. Watching them at 2x is still slow. An AI summary lets you see whether the video is worth your time, refresh the key points after watching, or pull a fast briefing for prep work.
YouTube Translate generates summaries from the full transcript, not the title or thumbnail. The AI reads everything the speaker actually said and structures the main arguments, facts, and conclusions — so the summary reflects the real content, not marketing.
Open YouTube Translate, paste the link, and tap Submit. The transcript loads first; the AI summary is the next tap.
Concise (TLDR), detailed, bullet points, or paragraph. Output language is independent of the video's language — get an English video summarized in Turkish, Spanish, or any of 134+ languages.
If the first summary misses a section you care about, tap Regenerate for a different angle. Export to PDF or save it to your Library for later reference.

YouTube Translate fetches the full transcript of the video, then uses Google Gemini to extract the main arguments, key facts, and conclusions into a structured summary. Output is typically 30-60 seconds to read for a one-hour video.
Pick from concise (the TLDR), detailed (richer explanation), bullet points, or paragraph format. Each can be regenerated for a different angle, and you can pick the output language independently of the video's language.
