## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to extract spoken content from a YouTube video without using the YouTube Data API credentials, when you want a simple pay-per-call approach with no account setup, or when you need to process video content as text for summarization, search, or analysis. Prefer this over manual transcription tools or speech-to-text pipelines when the video already has captions.

- Invalid or malformed YouTube URL/video ID — returns error
- Private, age-restricted, or geo-blocked video — access denied or error
- Video has been deleted or does not exist — 404-style error
