Exporting

Take a video's audio, transcript, and summary out of the app.

Export packages a single video into a .zip file so you can archive it or share it with others.

Exporting a Video

  1. Right-click a video in the sidebar.
  2. Choose Export.
  3. Pick a location and filename in the save dialog.

The .zip archive contains:

  • Audio - the video's audio file, keeping its original extension.
  • transcript.txt - the full transcript as plain text, with timestamps.
  • summary.md - the AI summary in Markdown, if the video has one.

Anything a video doesn't have is simply left out of the archive - a video you never summarized exports without summary.md. Plain text and Markdown, so both open anywhere.

Exporting is fully on-device. The archive is written straight to the location you choose, and nothing is uploaded.
