Extract text from
any video, instantly.
VideoTextCopy is a browser extension that lets you pause any video and copy the text on screen — powered by high-accuracy OCR technology, with enterprise-grade security.
Built for professionals
Every feature is designed around the real workflow of people who work with video content daily.
One-Click Capture
Pause any video and extract all visible text with a single click, then seamlessly select and copy exactly what you need — just like working in a native text editor.
High-Accuracy OCR
Powered by industry-leading OCR technology with support for multiple languages, fonts, and complex text layouts.

Images are processed on our servers and never stored. License keys are managed with secure, privacy-first device authentication.
Multi-Device Support

Works for every workflow
VideoTextCopy recognises text with the same precision you expect when selecting text in a browser — whether it's code, subtitles, or handwritten notes on a slide.
Copy code directly from tutorial videos
Found the perfect snippet in a YouTube tutorial but it's only on screen? VideoTextCopy extracts it character-perfect — indentation, symbols, and all. No more pausing and retyping.
const res = await fetch(`/api/users/${id}`)
return res.json()
}
↑ Copied from a video — not typed manually
Capture subtitles and foreign text instantly
Learning Spanish or Japanese or any foreign language? Copy unfamiliar words, phrases, or full subtitle lines directly into your translator, Anki deck, or notes app — no switching tools, no manual input.
Extract captions and on-screen text at speed
Building content from reference videos? Pull captions, titles, text overlays, and on-screen copy from any short-form or long-form video. Repurpose and remix without ever retyping a single word.
Take notes from lectures without retyping
Watching recorded lectures, conference talks, or online courses? Capture slide content, and key points in one click. Stay focused on understanding — not on frantic manual note-taking.
