What NoteGPT is

On YouTube, NoteGPT opens a panel with the transcript, an AI summary, and chat about the video, including transcription of uncaptioned videos up to two hours long. Notes can become mind maps, slides, or narrated podcasts, and subtitles download as TXT or SRT with translation into 40+ languages.

Permissions and privacy

Page access

NoteGPT's core job runs on youtube.com, where it adds its summary panel beside the video. If you only use it for YouTube, set Chrome's site access to youtube.com so it cannot read other pages, and grant access on click when you want it elsewhere.

Data notes

The developer declares no data collection on the listing. NoteGPT Inc's extension privacy policy says summaries and settings are stored locally by default, and that questions and answers go to its servers only when you save or share a conversation; share links make that content public.

Pricing

Free core features; paid Pro, Unlimited, and Max plans. Pricing and plan limits change more often than store metadata, so use the linked developer page as the final check before subscribing.
