Terms of Service
Last updated: November 5, 2026
These terms govern your use of the Transkrio API and website (the "Service"), operated by Ricardo Ruiz, Paraguay ("we", "us"). By creating an API key or using the Service you agree to them.
1. The Service
Transkrio provides an API that returns transcripts and metadata of publicly available online videos. Access requires an API key. We may change, improve or discontinue features with reasonable notice.
2. Accounts and API keys
- One free key per person and email address. Creating multiple free accounts to obtain extra credits is not allowed.
- Keep your key secret. You are responsible for all usage made with it. If it leaks, request a new one from the website: the old key stops working.
3. Credits, plans and payment
- One credit is consumed per successful request. Failed requests are not charged.
- Subscriptions renew monthly until cancelled. Unused subscription credits roll over up to twice the monthly allowance of your plan. Credit packs do not expire.
- Payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy, acting as merchant of record. Their terms apply to the purchase.
- When a subscription ends, your key returns to the free tier and keeps any remaining credits.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to: use the Service for unlawful purposes; infringe the rights of content owners; try to circumvent rate limits, credit accounting or security; resell raw access to the API as a competing transcript service; or overload the Service. You are responsible for how you use the transcripts you obtain, including compliance with copyright and the terms of the platforms where the videos are hosted.
5. Availability
We aim for high availability but the Service is provided "as is", without warranties. Third-party platforms may change or block access to content at any time, which can make some videos temporarily unavailable.
6. Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim related to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 3 months before the claim. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages.
7. Suspension
We may suspend keys that violate these terms or put the Service at risk. Where possible we will contact you first.
8. Changes
We may update these terms. Material changes will be announced on this page at least 14 days before they take effect.
