Looking for a NoteGPT alternative that gives you the raw transcript?
NoteGPT turns YouTube videos into AI summaries, notes, and mind maps. SubExtract gives you the verbatim transcript across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, and the web — so you can cite, fact-check, or feed your own LLM without trusting someone else's summarizer.
Side-by-side comparison
| Feature | NoteGPT | SubExtract |
|---|---|---|
YouTube transcripts | Yes — but wrapped in AI summary by default | Yes — verbatim transcript, SRT or text |
AI summaries | Yes — built-in summaries across videos | Transcript export; bring your own LLM |
Mind maps / structured notes | Yes — auto-generated mind maps and slides | Not supported |
TikTok / Instagram / X transcripts | Limited or unsupported | Yes — all three supported |
Comments / channel / playlist export | No | Yes — full CSV export |
Hallucination risk on factual claims | Real — AI summary can paraphrase or invent | None — output is the actual transcript |
Pricing transparency | Tiered credits, opaque limits across features | Free tier with daily credits, Pro removes limits |
Web page → Markdown | No | Yes — scraper + crawler |
Pricing
NoteGPT
Free tier with daily AI credits. Paid tiers add longer videos, more summaries, mind maps, and team features. Credit usage varies by feature, which makes it hard to predict monthly cost.
SubExtract
Free tier with daily credits, no card. Pro removes limits and unlocks bulk comment, channel, and playlist export at a flat monthly price.
Why people switch
- Need the actual transcript for citation, legal review, or fact-checking — not an AI paraphrase
- Worried about AI hallucinations contaminating research notes or quotes
- Want TikTok, Instagram, and X coverage — not just YouTube
- Need bulk comment, channel, and playlist CSV export for competitor analysis
- Prefer flat predictable pricing over tiered AI credits that meter every action
