Seek is a Chrome extension for YouTube watch pages. Ctrl+K opens a search over the transcript so you can jump to where something was said. Think Ctrl+F for spoken content. YouTube’s native transcript panel works, but it’s slow to scan. If you’re halfway through a forty-minute talk and want the bit where someone mentions “context window”, you’re scrolling a wall of text or scrubbing the timeline and hoping. I kept doing that on tutorial videos and conference talks, and I wanted a faster way in.

does it pick up the transcript automatically or do you have to manually paste it in for each video
@abantakanancyy hey, yes it auto picks it up for the video. It doesn't even need to be enabled, as long as the video does have a transcript or captions.
Does it work on videos that have auto-generated captions but no proper transcript uploaded by the creator, or does it need a real transcript file to index?
This is exactly what I needed for long tutorial videos. Searched "regex" in a coding talk and it jumped right to the explanation. Way faster than scrubbing.
Does it handle videos that have auto-generated captions, or does it only work when there's an actual transcript uploaded by the creator?
the ctrl+k shortcut is a nice touch, feels right at home next to other browser shortcuts and way faster than scrolling through the native transcript.
