## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

## Video Transcript - Universal Multi-Platform Video Transcript Intelligence API

**Video Transcript is a universal video transcript intelligence API that extracts AI-generated speech-to-text, timestamped segments, and rich video metadata from any video URL or uploaded file across 1,000+ platforms in 100+ languages in a single video-driven run.** Video Transcript returns structured records per video, including video URL, video ID, video title, video description, author/channel name, source platform, video duration in seconds, view count, like count, comment count, video categories, video tags array, thumbnail image URL, source language code, target language code (when translation enabled), full transcript text, timestamped segment array (start, end, text), transcript source flag (native captions vs ASR), and word count. Coverage spans YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch VOD, Vimeo, Bilibili, Dailymotion, and 1,000+ additional platforms with both URL-based extraction and direct file upload. Built for RAG indexing pipelines, AI-agent workflows, video-search engines, content-summarization toolchains, podcast-transcription, accessibility compliance, and multilingual-research datasets. Per-video pay-per-result pricing at $0.42 with no monthly minimum.

Speech recognition (ASR) processes video audio directly; captions are used as fallback for videos with existing subtitle tracks — maximizing transcript coverage across all video types and formats.

**⏱️ Timestamped Segment Output**
The `transcript` object includes `language`, full `text`, and `segments` array with `start`, `end`, and `text` per segment — enabling precise speech alignment for RAG indexing, search, and downstream AI processing.

**🌍 100+ Language Translation**
The optional `translate` parameter triggers AI-powered translation into 100+ languages including Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, and many more — enabling multilingual transcript pipelines from a single API call.

**📁 Direct File Upload Support**
The `video_file` input accepts direct file URLs or uploaded media files — enabling transcript extraction from private videos, archived content, and any media file type without requiring a public video URL.

**📊 Rich Video Metadata**
Each transcript record includes view count, like count, comment count, shares count, dislike count, categories, tags, published date, duration, and author data — enabling combined transcript + engagement analytics for video content intelligence.

### Use Cases & Applications

#### AI & RAG Pipeline Integration

**RAG Knowledge Base Ingestion**
Extract timestamped video transcripts at scale — converting video content to structured text segments for vector embedding, knowledge base indexing, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines across enterprise AI workflows.

**AI Agent Video Analysis**
Feed video transcript data (full text + segments) directly to LLM-based agents — enabling video content summarization, Q\&A, classification, and knowledge extraction workflows without manual transcription overhead.

**Speech Dataset Construction**
The `segments` array with precise `start`/`end` timestamps enables speech-text alignment dataset construction for ASR model training, fine-tuning, and benchmark evaluation at scale.

#### Content Intelligence & Localization

**Multilingual Video Content Pipeline**
Use the `translate` parameter to generate 100+ language translations per video — building multilingual content libraries, subtitle pipelines, and cross-language search indexes from a single source video.

**Video SEO & Content Analysis**
Combine transcript text with `tags`, `categories`, `view_count`, and `like_count` data to analyze content-performance correlation — identifying high-performing topics, keyword density, and engagement-driving content patterns.

***

### FAQ

#### Can I transcribe private videos or uploaded files?

Yes — use the `video_file` input to upload a media file directly or provide a direct file URL. If both `video_url` and `video_file` are provided, the file takes priority.

#### What video platforms are supported?

YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch, Facebook, Vimeo, X (Twitter), and 1,000+ additional platforms. Any platform accessible via URL with audio content can be transcribed.

#### How are transcripts generated for videos without subtitles?

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) processes the video audio directly. For videos with existing caption/subtitle tracks, captions are used as the primary source with ASR as fallback.

#### What languages can be translated to?

100+ languages are supported for translation including Arabic, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and many more.

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "video_url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rzeW4dbvlQ"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("agentx/video-transcript").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
