What this adds
One row under Productivity, placed alphabetically between
VidoraandVimium.Why it belongs
It reads captions from the page itself rather than scraping YouTube from a server, which is why it still works on videos whose transcript panel is unavailable. Export is TXT, SRT, VTT or Word; notes carry a timestamp that links back to the exact moment.
The section already carries YouTube-specific tools (
Video Blocker,Zenith - Upgrade for YouTube) and product-site URLs rather than store links (CiteMe,Detox,ZenHub), so both the category and the link style match what is there.Disclosure
I maintain VidWords. In-browser transcript capture is free and unlimited with no card or account required; paid tiers cover server-side and AI work.
