YouTube Video Extractor
Python Scripts
YouTube Video Extractor is a self-hosted Django application that lets you paste any YouTube link and pull back everything about it in one pass — full metadata (title, description, tags, view/like/comment counts, duration, upload date, and channel details), the complete transcript, and the source video itself as a downloaded MP4. Every lookup is logged to a history dashboard backed by SQLite, and results can be exported individually, in bulk, or as your entire archive to CSV or Excel. Built on Python, Django 6, yt-dlp, and youtube-transcript-api, with a YouTube-themed UI, it's suited for researchers, content archivists, marketers, and data teams who need structured, exportable YouTube data without relying on ad-laden third-party download sites.
YouTube Video Extractor
Stop juggling five different browser extensions to grab a YouTube video's transcript, its metadata, and the file itself. YouTube Video Extractor is a self-hosted Django app that pulls all three from a single pasted link, keeps a searchable history of every extraction, and exports anything — one video or your whole archive — straight to CSV or Excel.
What You Get
- Full metadata extraction — title, description, tags, view/like/comment counts, duration, upload date, and channel (publisher) details from any pasted YouTube URL.
- Complete transcripts — pulled directly from YouTube's own captions, no manual copy-pasting.
- One-click MP4 download — powered by yt-dlp, with ffmpeg merging separate video and audio streams automatically.
- Flexible export — send a single video, a multi-select batch, or your entire history to CSV or Excel.
- History dashboard — every video you've ever looked up, backed by SQLite, searchable and re-exportable at any time.
- YouTube-themed UI — built with the CodeRobotics and Inter typefaces, served from the fonts/ folder as static assets.
Why This Extractor?
Free online "YouTube downloader" sites come with pop-up ads, upload limits, and no way to see who's processing your links. This runs entirely on infrastructure you control, so links, transcripts, and downloaded files never leave your own server.
- No browser extensions, no sketchy third-party download sites, no ads.
- Structured, exportable data instead of manually transcribing one video at a time.
- A permanent local record — video, transcript, and metadata together, not scattered across tools.
Perfect For
- Content researchers and OSINT analysts
- Course creators and archivists building a transcript library
- Marketers compiling competitor content reports
- Data teams collecting structured YouTube metadata at scale
- Anyone who wants a private, self-hosted extraction tool instead of a random website
