YouTube Transcript Automation: Free Setup in 10 Minutes + 7 Prompts to Process Any Video

$0+

Tired of watching great YouTube videos only to forget the details days later?

This automation solves that.

With a quick Google Sheets setup, you can paste any YouTube link and instantly pull the full transcript for free.

Once the text is there, you can use Google’s built-in AI to process it however you need: summarize, extract key quotes, draft Substack notes, create LinkedIn posts, or even map out a mini-course.

What you’ll need:

A Google Account (for Sheets + Apps Script)
A free RapidAPI key (20 videos/month free, $10 if you need more)

Setup Time: ~10 minutes

Ongoing Use: ~5 seconds (paste, click, done)

This isn’t about passively watching videos anymore. It’s about turning them into a searchable library of knowledge you can actually use.
