You can bring a video to Ask From Video by pasting a YouTube link or uploading the file. Both end in the same place: a summary, a searchable transcript, chapters and timestamped answers.
Paste a link
A YouTube link is the quickest route when the video is public and has captions or a transcript available. Nothing to download, nothing to upload.
Upload the file
Uploading works for your own recordings, such as meetings, lectures and presentations, and for videos a link can’t reach. MP4, MOV and WebM files are supported.
- Private or unlisted videos you have the file for
- Videos without captions
- Recordings that were never on YouTube
When a link won’t work
Private, age-restricted, region-restricted or removed videos can’t be accessed from a link. If it’s your video, uploading the file works regardless of its YouTube settings.
