Frequently Asked Questions
Does Libraryminds support multi-language transcription?
Yes. Libraryminds provides automatic language detection with dedicated support for 10 major world languages: English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic. Any completed transcript can also be translated into 10 languages without re-processing the original video.
Can Libraryminds generate AI summaries and chapters from videos?
Yes. Libraryminds automatically generates AI summaries, chapter breakdowns, key takeaways, action items, and flashcards from any transcribed video. These are linked back to the exact timestamps in the source video, making it easy to navigate to the relevant moment.
Does Libraryminds support team collaboration?
Yes. Libraryminds includes Team Workspaces — you can create named workspaces, invite collaborators by email with owner or member roles, and share completed transcriptions across your team. Any transcript can also be shared publicly via a unique link that anyone can view and search without an account.
Can Libraryminds export transcripts in SRT, VTT, or Notion format?
Yes. Libraryminds exports transcripts in SRT, VTT, plain TXT, Markdown, and Notion format. You can also import existing transcripts from Otter, Zoom, Descript, or Rev without using any transcription minutes.
Does Libraryminds have a developer API?
Yes. Libraryminds provides a public REST API (v1) for developers. Submit YouTube URLs for transcription via POST /api/v1/jobs and retrieve timestamped transcripts in JSON, SRT, VTT, or plain text. The API uses Bearer token authentication, supports 60 requests per minute, and integrates with automation tools like Zapier, Make, and n8n.
Do transcripts help videos rank in Google (video SEO)?
Search engines cannot watch a video — they index text. Publishing a transcript or captions alongside a video gives crawlers the full spoken content to index, which helps the page surface for queries about what was actually said, and improves accessibility at the same time. Libraryminds exports transcripts in SRT, VTT, TXT, and Markdown so you can publish them wherever the video lives.
What is the difference between semantic search and keyword search for video?
Keyword search matches the exact words you type; if the speaker phrased it differently, you get nothing. Semantic search matches meaning — a query like "reducing customer churn" also finds a passage about "keeping subscribers from leaving." Libraryminds uses semantic search across your entire library, so you find moments by concept, not just exact wording.
