YouTube video translator: translate YouTube summaries

Looking for a YouTube video translator that gives you notes you can actually read—not a dubbed remake? Paste a public link below. YS Summarizer turns available captions into a clear summary (Key Takeaways, Connected Ideas, Structured Summary, or Detailed Article) in the language of the current page—including a YouTube summary in English when the site language is English. Switch the site language before you submit to choose the output language. This is caption → summarized + translated text—not full-video dubbing, a subtitle-file editor, or a YouTube Studio auto-translate replacement.

How to translate a YouTube video into summary notes

1

Switch the site language for output

Summary language follows the page language (English, 简体中文, Español, Français, 日本語). Use the language switcher in the header so the translated summary matches the language you want to read.

2

Paste a public YouTube link

Use a video with usable captions or transcript. Private, unavailable, or captionless videos cannot be processed yet.

3

Choose a summary style and submit

Pick Key Takeaways, Connected Ideas, Structured Summary, or Detailed Article. The result is readable notes in your page language—copy or download Markdown on the result page.

Translator here means summarized notes—not dubbing

Search for “YouTube video translator” or “translate YouTube video” is dominated by dubbing, lip-sync, and subtitle-track tools. YS Summarizer is a YouTube summarizer: it reads available captions and writes a shorter summary in another language. It does not re-voice the video, create SRT/VTT files, edit YouTube Studio captions, or replace YouTube’s built-in auto-translate on the watch page.

Same free summarizer, multilingual-output framing

This page uses the same free paste-a-link form as the homepage. There is no separate “dub language” control—output language is the site locale you are on. Want a YouTube summary in English from a non-English video? Switch to English, paste a captioned public link, and submit. For Markdown/PDF export of those notes, see the summary-to-text and summary PDF pages; for article-length writeups, see turn YouTube into article.
