Compare YouTube To Text vs NoteGPT

Why These Two?

Both Chrome extensions pull captions from any public YouTube video; what you can do with that text is where they differ.

YouTube To Text

• One click → full transcript beside the player
• Instant keyword search inside the text
• Ai Summary
• 99+ languages support

NoteGPT — Snapshot

1. Produces a transcript, but the “ChatGPT‑style” summary can feel generic and sometimes skips key details.
2. Highlighting is available, yet auto‑save isn’t always reliable, and timestamps can drift on longer videos.
3. Exports to Markdown, Notion, or Obsidian work, but the formatting often needs manual cleanup afterward.
4. Freemium pricing means batch summaries and mind‑maps sit behind a fairly steep paywall—and the mind‑maps themselves are pretty basic.
