What the example shows
The example above is the real output of this tool for a 15 second ad made with Ziztu: one line per phrase and the time each starts. A Facebook video comes back in the same form.
How it works on Facebook
The tool opens the public version of the video, the one anyone can see without logging in, finds the smallest copy of its sound, reads it with the Whisper large-v3 model and deletes it. Facebook is the strictest of the sites about automated requests, so some videos cannot be read from our server. When that happens the message says so, and the fix is to download the video and use the video to text converter, which works on any file.
Under the transcript are three more free steps. Summary gives the main point and the key points. 5 hooks writes five opening lines for a new video on the same topic, from five different angles. A post writes a caption you can post. Each one reads only the text you got, and each is free.
The last step is for a different kind of video. Turn this into a micro drama or anime script writes a short story idea from the topic and opens it in the free AI script writer or anime script generator. From there the same idea can become a real episode in the Ziztu studio.
Frequently asked questions
Is this Facebook video transcript generator free?
Yes. There is no signup and no card. 5 transcripts a day without an account, 20 with a free one.
Does it work on Facebook Reels?
Yes, when the Reel is public. Paste the facebook.com/reel link as it is.
Why does it say Facebook is not letting the server read the video?
Facebook blocks some automated requests. Try again in a few minutes. If it keeps happening, download the video and use the video to text converter.
How long can the video be?
Up to 3 minutes. For a longer video, download it and use the video to text converter, which takes files up to 10 minutes.
Does it work on private groups or profiles?
No. We read only what Facebook shows to anyone without a login, and we never ask for your Facebook login.
Can I use a transcript of someone else's video?
A transcript is the creator's own words, so treat it like any other copy of their work. Use it to read, search, take notes, make captions for a video you have the right to, or study how a good video is built. Do not republish it as your own. If you reuse the ideas, say where they came from.
