One dollar to skip the wait.

Paste a YouTube URL on /youtube-transcribe, pick a language (or leave it auto), and your browser pulls the audio track and runs OpenAI Whisper locally via WebAssembly. The model file caches after the first run, so subsequent transcriptions skip the download. Output is plain text or SRT/VTT subtitle files, ready to drop into Premiere, DaVinci, or upload as a YouTube caption track. Audio never leaves your device — there is no server-side inference, so it works on private or unlisted videos too. Included in Plus.

Our marginal cost per user is tiny — VidPickr runs almost entirely in your browser, so we don't pay for bandwidth or compute proportional to how many people use it. Plus exists to fund the small VPS that handles metadata extraction and to cover Stripe's fees, not to make us rich. Most YouTube downloader subscriptions are 5–20× this for less.

Free covers the basics — every quality up to 8K, MP3 + m4a audio, subtitles, single-video downloads, the browser extension. Plus unlocks the editing tools: time-range clip extraction, automatic silence removal, and reframe-to-vertical (9:16 / 1:1 / 4:5 with drag-to-pan crop) for Shorts and Reels. Plus also includes AI Transcribe (browser-local Whisper subtitles), batch playlist downloads up to 200 videos with 3 in parallel, and multi-language audio downloads. And it removes ads + the brief wait gate on free.

Yes — 3 days, no credit card required up front (Stripe collects payment info but doesn't charge during the trial). You can cancel before the trial ends and pay nothing.

Yes — $9.99/year (vs $12 if you paid monthly). About 17% off. The annual plan unlocks the same features as monthly.

Sign in → Account → Manage subscription → Cancel. Takes one click and you keep Plus features until the end of your billing period. No phone calls, no retention surveys, no hidden steps. Stripe handles the cancellation directly.

No — Stripe handles all card data via their hosted checkout. We only see anonymized customer IDs and subscription status. We never see your card number, CVC, or billing address.

Yes. Cancelling Plus doesn't delete anything you've already downloaded, and the free tier still covers single-video downloads, subtitles, and the rest of the core features. The Plus-only features (clip, silence removal, reframe, batch, AI Transcribe, multi-language audio) stop being available.

Plus is available worldwide except in countries where Stripe doesn't operate. If checkout fails with a "card not supported" error, that's the underlying cause. The free tier works everywhere.

Yes — if you cancel within 14 days of paying for Plus and email us, we'll refund the charge. Outside that window we don't refund partial-period usage but you can cancel anytime to stop further charges.

We have no plans to raise the base price. If we did, existing subscribers would keep their original price (legacy pricing) for the lifetime of their continuous subscription.

No — free and Plus both download at the highest quality YouTube serves for the video. Plus adds features around the download (batch, AI transcription, multi-language), not a quality bump.

Yes, with the same account. Sign in to VidPickr on each device and Plus features unlock automatically. No device limit.
