YouTube Transcript Scraper (Apify)
YouTube transcripts with timestamps, SRT/VTT and translation. No YouTube login. From $4/1k
What it does
YouTube Transcript Scraper (Apify) is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to 3 capabilities: social media management, translation and web scraping. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as support customers in many languages or transcribe audio and video.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence) and are not a test of the tool.

Live check
Electra Index connected to the hosted endpoint 16m agoREACHABLE The endpoint answered but asks for an API key or a sign-in before connecting. Electra Index never sends credentials, so the tool list is not visible here.
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
