Capture the source.
Transcript with timestamps, screenshots, description, title, thumbnail, channel context, and comments in one markdown file.
See the workflow ->One click under any video. Your AI gets the whole thing: transcript, screenshots, comments, channel context, podcasts too. Local. Yours.

one uoink / readable by Claude, ChatGPT, and agents
Transcript-only tools flatten video into text. Uoink keeps the parts that make video useful: the words, the frames, the audience reaction, the channel context, and the source metadata.
Transcript with timestamps, screenshots, description, title, thumbnail, channel context, and comments in one markdown file.
See the workflow ->Every capture writes to disk and into a local SQLite index. Search it later, cite it later, move it into your own vault.
Browse features ->Paste into Claude or ChatGPT, send directly, or let an MCP agent call Uoink without touching the clipboard.
Open agent docs ->The helper runs on localhost. Your corpus lands on your disk. Optional Hook Type, Comment Intelligence, and Entity Extraction calls use your own Anthropic key, not a Uoink proxy.
The on-ramp stays simple. The depth shows up after the corpus exists.
Watch less. Read more. Audit hooks, pacing, screenshots, comments, and competitor channels without taking notes at 2x.
See creator workflow -> 02Build a local library from videos and podcasts. Pull claims, guests, tools, products, and recurring entities across everything you saved.
Use it for podcasts -> 03Give Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, or ChatGPT Desktop 13 local tools for video capture and corpus search.
Wire up MCP ->Uoink this video and compare the hook against my last ten saved competitor videos.
Calling uoink_video, then classify_hook, then search_uoinks. Your model reads the corpus. Uoink does not become the model.

Download the helper, install the extension, open a video, and click Uoink. The helper bundles what it needs so you do not install Python, yt-dlp, or ffmpeg yourself.
