About Snatch
One link is worth a whole workflow.
Snatch is a browser tool that takes a single video or podcast URL and gives you everything you can do with it: a clean download, a timestamped transcript, an AI summary with chapters and quotes, and shareable vertical clips with captions. No account, no install, no stitched-together stack of five different apps.
The problem we started with
A recorded conversation is full of value that is locked inside the playback. The pull quote you want to post, the transcript your team needs to search, the 30 seconds that would do numbers as a Short, the two-minute summary that saves an hour: all of it is in there, and all of it used to mean juggling a downloader, a transcription service, a summarizer, and a video editor, then paying for each one.
Creators, podcasters, and researchers were doing the same manual dance over and over. So we built the dance into one screen. Paste a link, and the four jobs that used to be four tools happen at once.
Four tools, one paste
Download
MP4 in any quality the source offers, or MP3 audio only.
Transcript
Timestamped and speaker-separated, exportable as SRT, VTT, or TXT.
Summary
An AI summary with auto chapters and the quotes that matter.
Clips
Vertical 9:16 clips with burned-in captions, auto-picked or set by hand.
How the engine works
Snatch is not a wrapper around one API. It chains four best-in-class pieces, each doing the one thing it does better than anything else, so the result is genuinely good and not a demo.
Step 1
Fetch
Cloud extraction
Paste a URL and Snatch pulls the real media through a cloud extraction layer that works from anywhere: YouTube, TikTok, X, Vimeo, Twitch clips, SoundCloud, and podcast feeds. It surfaces the real qualities the source offers, never a made-up list.
Step 2
Handle format & clips
ffmpeg
ffmpeg does the media work: it muxes the download into clean MP4 or MP3, and cuts the vertical 9:16 clips with captions burned straight into the frame, ready for Reels, Shorts, or TikTok.
Step 3
Transcribe
Deepgram
When the source has no captions, Snatch sends the audio to Deepgram for speech-to-text: word-level timing, speaker separation, and clean SRT, VTT, and TXT you can drop straight into an editor.
Step 4
Summarize & pick clips
OpenAI
An AI reads the actual transcript to write the summary, split it into chapters, pull the key quotes, and choose the three most shareable moments. Everything is grounded in the words that were really said.
Who Snatch is for
Creators & editors
Turn one long upload into a week of vertical clips. Snatch finds the moments worth cutting and captions them, so the repurposing work that used to eat an afternoon is done before you open your editor.
Podcasters
Every episode becomes a show-notes summary, a searchable transcript, and shareable audiograms. Point Snatch at an episode link or an RSS feed and get the promo assets without leaving the browser.
Researchers & teams
Talks, interviews, lectures, and calls become quotable, timestamped text you can search, cite, and skim. Read the summary in a minute instead of scrubbing through an hour.
What we care about
Real, not faked
The download qualities are the ones the source actually has. The transcript is the real audio, timed to the word. Nothing on the results screen is a placeholder pretending to be data.
Fast and frictionless
It runs in the browser. No extension to install, no desktop app to update, and no sign-up wall before you see whether it works for you.
Yours to use responsibly
Snatch is a tool. Only download or clip content you own or have the right to use, and respect each platform's terms. We keep the engine sharp; you decide what to point it at.
