What this does

Paste a wall of caption text with no line breaks and we split it into paragraphs at each point the topic changes. Not a single word is reworded, cut, or added.

This only inserts breaks. If your caption text runs on mid-sentence because of how YouTube exported it, that run-on stays inside one paragraph rather than being smoothed out for you.

Use cases
  1. 01Turn a raw caption export into something readable before you paste it into a document.
  2. 02Prep a transcript for a blog draft without touching the wording yourself.
  3. 03Make a long interview transcript scannable before you search it for a quote.
FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does it change any of the wording?

No. Every word is checked to match on the way out. Only the paragraph breaks are new.

How does it know where one topic ends and another begins?

It reads the drift in what is being talked about. On a rambling or single-topic transcript, the breaks can land looser than you would choose by hand.

Do I need an account?

Yes. Transcript to Paragraphs is a Starter tool.
