Transcript Magic
A hosted MCP server that pulls transcripts from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook videos through four dedicated tools: transcribe_youtube, transcribe_tiktok, transcribe_instagram, and transcribe_facebook. Each transcript costs 1 credit from your TranscriptMagic account. Connects to Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and Cline over streamable HTTP with OAuth 2.0 sign-in via Google. You also get get_credit_balance and list_recent_transcripts for managing your account. Works only on public videos, not private or age-restricted content. New accounts start with free credits. Useful when you need to analyze video content without manually copying captions or when the platform doesn't expose them directly.
