Paste a TikTok, Instagram Reel, YouTube Short, or YouTube video URL, get the full timestamped transcript in seconds, then run it through AI agents that break down hook structure, virality factors, and script patterns. The platform supports TikTok videos up to 10 minutes, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and standard YouTube videos. Beyond individual videos, TokScript supports bulk processing of up to 50 URLs at once, full creator profile and playlist imports for TikTok (up to 10,000 videos per import), and HD watermark-free video downloads at original source quality on paid plans. ## MCP Connector (Claude and ChatGPT) TokScript is available as a Model Context Protocol connector. Users add the TokScript MCP server to Claude or ChatGPT and the AI gains access to 22 tools for transcript extraction, video downloads, creator profile analysis, and library management without leaving the chat interface. - MCP overview: https://tokscript.com/mcp - Claude setup guide: https://tokscript.com/mcp/claude - ChatGPT setup guide: https://tokscript.com/mcp/chatgpt - Tool count: 22 tools (transcripts, bulk extraction, collection imports, HD downloads, cover image downloads, profile data, library search) - Plan availability: Works on every plan including Free. Free users get 5 transcriptions per day. Paid plans unlock unlimited transcripts, bulk processing, collection imports, and HD downloads. All MCP usage counts against the user's regular plan limits. Data returned per video: full transcript, title, author, duration, views, likes, comments, shares, bookmarks, publish date, hashtags, audio track name, audio URL, and thumbnail. TikTok profiles also return follower count, following count, total likes, and video count. Key MCP tools include: get_tiktok_transcript, get_instagram_transcript, get_youtube_transcript, get_bulk_transcripts, get_tiktok_collection, get_tiktok_user_videos, download_video, download_cover_image, and library search and export tools. ## AI Agents (3 Specialized Agents) TokScript includes 3 AI agents powered by OpenAI GPT-4o and Anthropic Claude 3.5 Sonnet. The agents distinguish between platform-specific patterns: what works on TikTok's For You feed differs from Instagram's Explore tab and YouTube's search-driven Shorts feed. All 3 agents are included with unlimited usage on paid plans. Free plan users do not have access to AI agents. ### Viral Hook Generator Input: any video transcript. Output: 20+ hook variations categorized by type (curiosity gaps, bold claims, relatable statements, controversy hooks, storytelling openers). Hooks are tuned to platform: TikTok hooks need to land in under 2 seconds, while YouTube Shorts can build slightly longer because viewers arrive with different intent. ### Viral Script Writer Input: any viral video transcript. Output: a complete original script rewritten for the creator's voice and niche. The Script Writer preserves the structural elements that drove performance (hook placement, pacing, CTA position, emotional arc) while replacing content entirely with the creator's niche language. ### Virality Explainer Input: any video transcript. Output: a structured breakdown explaining why the video performed: hook mechanics, psychological triggers, pacing decisions, content patterns, and algorithmic signals, with actionable takeaways the creator can apply to their own content. ## Platform Support ### TikTok Primary platform. Single-video transcripts, bulk import (up to 50 URLs), full creator profile imports (up to 10,000 videos), collection and playlist imports, HD watermark-free downloads, cover image downloads, profile metadata extraction.

Word-level timestamps available for precise navigation and reference. Available on the web dashboard, via the Chrome Extension, and through the MCP connector. ### Translation TokScript translates transcripts into multiple languages on paid plans. Free plan includes a limited number of translations per day. For the current supported language list and daily limits, refer to https://tokscript.com/pricing ### Bulk Processing Paste up to 50 video URLs at once into a single input. The system processes all of them simultaneously. Each processed video includes the full transcript plus metadata: view count, likes, comments, posting date, creator handle, and hashtags. Ideal for competitive research, trend analysis, and agency workflows. ### Collection and Playlist Import (TikTok) Import entire TikTok creator profiles or curated playlists by pasting a single link. The system crawls all videos automatically with parallel transcription and metadata extraction. Handles up to 10,000 videos in a single import operation. Output includes CSV-ready data, organized folder structures, searchable cloud dashboard entries, and date filtering. Instagram and YouTube collection-style imports use the Bulk Import tool instead. Private profiles are not accessible. ### HD Video and Cover Image Download Download videos in original source quality on paid plans. TokScript accesses original files before platform watermarks are added, so downloads are clean HD with no watermarks, no compression, and no re-encoding. HD cover and thumbnail downloads are available separately as JPG files. ### Quick URL Method Prefix any supported video URL with "tokscript.com/" in the browser address bar to trigger an instant transcript redirect. No homepage visit, no paste step. ### Chrome Extension Browser extension for faster transcript extraction directly while browsing supported video platforms.
