Overview

AI-generated overview

JustTranscribe MCP lets an assistant turn public video and audio links into timestamped transcripts, then export or manage them.

What you can do
Start transcription of a public video or audio link and poll for the finished text, optionally with timestamped segments and an AI analysis of the content. List the account's transcripts, newest first. Export a transcript as TXT, SRT, VTT, Markdown or CSV text. Permanently delete a transcript and its media. Check which account the key belongs to and its limits.
When to use it
Useful when you want transcripts of public YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest or Google Drive media without leaving the chat, for summarizing, quoting with timestamps, or producing subtitle files.
Requirements
Runs either as a hosted remote endpoint with OAuth sign-in or as a local npm package started with npx, needing Node.js. Both need a JustTranscribe API key, passed as the JUSTTRANSCRIBE_API_KEY environment variable or as an Authorization bearer header. An optional JUSTTRANSCRIBE_API_URL overrides the API origin. Network access to justtranscribe.ai is required.
Before you install
The API key is a secret; keep it out of shared configuration. The delete tool permanently removes a transcript and its media. Transcribed links and media are sent to JustTranscribe's service. Limits apply: public links only, up to 150 minutes per recording, 3 new transcripts per hour and one processing at a time during the beta. File upload is not possible over MCP.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Justtranscribe Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.bramontiventures%2Fjusttranscribe-mcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

justtranscribe-mcp

MCP server for JustTranscribe — transcribe public videos and audio into accurate, timestamped text without leaving your AI assistant. Paste a YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link in the chat; get the transcript back, export SRT/TXT/Markdown, or pull the AI breakdown of a social video. Spanish, English and dozens of languages are auto-detected.

Two ways to connect — both use the same API key and the same account limits:

TransportFor
Hosted https://justtranscribe.ai/api/mcpStreamable HTTPClaude Code, Cursor, any client that supports remote servers with headers
This package npx justtranscribe-mcpstdioClaude Desktop and other stdio-only clients

Setup

  1. Create a free API key at https://justtranscribe.ai/api-keys (free during the beta, no card).
  2. Add the server to your client.

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "justtranscribe": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "justtranscribe-mcp"],      "env": { "JUSTTRANSCRIBE_API_KEY": "jt_live_..." }    }  }}

Claude Code (hosted variant — no install):

bash
claude mcp add --transport http justtranscribe https://justtranscribe.ai/api/mcp \  --header "Authorization: Bearer jt_live_..."

Claude Code plugin

This repo is also a Claude Code plugin. It runs this package as a local MCP server and adds a transcribe skill that knows the limits and the export formats.

/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community/plugin install justtranscribe@claude-community

Set your key once (create one free at https://justtranscribe.ai/api-keys) and restart Claude Code:

bash
export JUSTTRANSCRIBE_API_KEY=jt_live_...

Then:

/justtranscribe:transcribe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw

Prefer signing in to pasting a key? Use the hosted server directly instead of the plugin — claude mcp add --transport http justtranscribe https://justtranscribe.ai/api/mcp — which runs an OAuth sign-in. (A plugin's .mcp.json only loads local stdio servers, so the plugin ships the npx variant.)

To try the plugin before it is listed, clone this repo and run claude --plugin-dir ./justtranscribe-mcp.

Tools

  • transcribe_url — start transcribing a public video/audio link (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Google Drive). Returns an id; processing takes minutes.
  • get_transcript — poll by id; returns the full text once complete (optionally timestamped segments and the AI analysis).
  • list_transcripts — the account's transcripts, newest first.
  • export_transcript — TXT, SRT, VTT, Markdown or CSV as text.
  • delete_transcript — permanently remove a transcript and its media.
  • get_account — identify the key's account and limits.

Limits

Public links only (no private or login-required videos, no live streams), up to 150 minutes per recording. The server enforces the same limits as the app and the REST API: 120 requests/minute per key, 3 new transcripts/hour, one processing at a time during the beta. File upload isn't possible over MCP — use the app or the REST API.

Environment

  • JUSTTRANSCRIBE_API_KEY (required) — your jt_live_… key.
  • JUSTTRANSCRIBE_API_URL (optional) — API origin override; defaults to https://justtranscribe.ai.

This server asks you to sign in, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without an account and has not indexed them. What a connected account sees can depend on that account and its permissions.
