YouTube actively blocks requests from known cloud provider IP addresses (Vercel, AWS, Heroku, etc.) to prevent automated scraping. This is a standard anti-bot measure. The tool works perfectly on local computers and some hosting providers that use residential IPs.
For production applications, you may need to implement a proxy service like WebShare or similar residential proxy providers. The tool itself is production-ready; the limitation is YouTube's IP-based restrictions.
The tool works with any YouTube video that has captions or transcripts enabled. This includes auto-generated captions and manually uploaded subtitles in multiple languages.
You can export transcripts in three formats: Plain Text (for reading), SRT (for subtitles), and JSON (for developers). Each format serves different use cases and applications.
