Video Content

Five tools for extracting and analysing content from YouTube videos — transcripts, subtitles, bulk fetching, and RPM estimation — all accessible through natural language in your AI assistant.

Prerequisites

Your AI assistant calls these tools automatically. Just describe what you want in plain language and NexLev handles the rest.

Tools

get_video_transcript

Get the full timestamped transcript of a single YouTube video. Useful for content analysis, summarisation, and studying how top videos are structured.

What it returns:

  • Full transcript text with timestamps
  • Segmented captions for the entire video

Example prompts:

Get the transcript for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
Transcribe this video and summarise the key points: youtube.com/watch?v=abc123
What does this video talk about? Get its transcript: youtube.com/watch?v=xyz789

Parameters:

ParameterRequiredDescription
video_idYesThe YouTube video ID (the part after ?v=)

For multiple videos at once, use Bulk Transcripts — it's more efficient than calling this tool repeatedly.
