Terms of Service
Last updated: October 17, 2026
These terms apply when you use ScribeShort (scribeshort.com). By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
The service
ScribeShort provides free online tools that return the text of a video's public captions or spoken words. The tools are offered as they are, without any promise that they will always work or always be available. We may change, limit, or stop any tool at any time.
Fair use and limits
- Each visitor may request a limited number of transcripts per day. The limit is shown on the tool page and may change.
- Do not use scripts, bots, or multiple addresses to get around the limits or to send requests automatically.
- Do not try to interfere with the site, its servers, or other users.
Your responsibilities
- Only request transcripts of videos you are allowed to view, and follow the terms of the platform the video comes from.
- The words in a video belong to the person who made it. You are responsible for how you use a transcript, including getting permission before you republish someone else's content.
- Do not use the service for anything illegal, harmful, or abusive.
Accuracy
Transcripts come from captions generated by the video platform. They can contain mistakes, and some videos have no captions at all. Check the text before relying on it.
Not affiliated
ScribeShort is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or their parent companies. Their names are used only to describe what the tools do.
No warranty and limitation of liability
The service is provided without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent allowed by law, ScribeShort is not liable for any loss or damage that results from using, or being unable to use, the service or any transcript it produces.
