TranscriptYT — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is TranscriptYT free to use?

TranscriptYT is listed in our free catalogue, but it requires an API key, so you will need to register before your first call. Providers frequently reserve higher limits and commercial use for paid plans.

Does TranscriptYT need an API key?

Yes. TranscriptYT authenticates with an API key. Keep it server-side rather than in browser code, because anything in your frontend bundle is readable by anyone who opens developer tools.

Can I call TranscriptYT from browser JavaScript?

Yes. TranscriptYT returned CORS headers when we checked it, so a browser will let your page read the response. You can fetch it directly from client-side JavaScript with no proxy and no backend.

Is TranscriptYT available over HTTPS?

Yes. TranscriptYT serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
