ekstrakt
⚡ AI-powered YouTube summaries. Watch less, learn more. ✨
ekstrakt is a YouTube summarization tool available as a web app and Chrome extension. It generates AI-powered summaries in four formats — Short, Detailed, Straight-to-Answer, and Ask-a-Question — with clickable transcripts that jump to any moment in the video. Results stream in real time. It runs on any Chromium-based browser and works with Google, Apple, or email login.
Features
- Four summary styles: Choose Short, Detailed, Straight-to-Answer, or Ask-a-Question to match how you want to consume the content.
- Live streaming results: Summaries generate in real time — no waiting for a spinner to finish.
- Clickable transcript timestamps: Read the full transcript and click any line to jump the video to that exact moment.
- Multi-language summaries: Get summary output in your preferred language regardless of the video's spoken language.
- One-click copy & download: Export summaries or transcripts to clipboard or as text files instantly.
- Summary history: Every summary is saved to your account — revisit past videos without re-generating.
- Theme-aware Chrome extension: The in-page panel automatically matches YouTube's light or dark mode.
Use Cases
- Study from lectures: Turn a 90-minute recorded lecture into structured notes with a Detailed summary, then click transcript timestamps to rewatch only the parts you need.
- Screen before you watch: Run a Short summary on a clickbait-titled video to see if it actually covers what the thumbnail promises.
- Get one specific answer: Use Straight-to-Answer on "how-to" and review videos to skip the intro, sponsor reads, and padding and jump straight to the conclusion.
- Interrogate long-form content: Ask-a-Question lets you query a 2-hour podcast or interview — "what did the guest say about pricing?" — and get an answer sourced from the actual transcript.
- Keep up with your industry: Summarize conference talks, keynotes, and news recaps in minutes, and revisit them later from your saved summary history.
- Work across languages: Watch a video in one language and get the summary in yours.

Hey! 👋 I'm Huseyin, maker of ekstrakt. YouTube is the world's biggest library of knowledge — but every book takes an hour to read. I was tired of scrubbing through 40-minute videos for one answer, so I built the fix. Paste a link (or click right on the YouTube page with our Chrome extension) and get an AI summary in seconds.
