Frequently asked questions — Chrome extension
Is the ScribeChrono Chrome extension free?
Yes — installation is free. Every account includes free monthly transcription minutes on the web and in the extension. Paid plans add more credits and advanced exports.
Can I transcribe a YouTube video with the extension?
Upload the downloaded audio or video file to the side panel, or record tab audio while the video plays. ScribeChrono extracts speech and returns a full text transcript.
Does the extension work offline?
An internet connection is required for AI transcription and account sync. The side panel loads your ScribeChrono workspace from our secure servers.
How is my data protected?
Uploads are encrypted in transit, processed in isolation, and not used to train public AI models. You can delete files from your dashboard at any time. See our privacy policy for GDPR details.
What's the difference vs the Google Docs add-on?
The Chrome extension works on any website with a side panel — ideal for browsing, recording, and sending transcripts to external AI tools. The Google Docs add-on inserts text directly into documents you are editing.
