In-depth safety analysis
This extension requests permissions that are fairly focused for its stated purpose. The scripting permission allows it to inject code into YouTube pages to extract video captions or transcripts. The storage permission lets it save settings locally. The identity permission can access basic profile info if you sign in with your Google account, which may be used for cloud features. Host access is limited to youtube.com, which is expected for a tool that converts video speech to text.
For a general browser extension in this category, typical safety considerations include being aware that any tool which can read page content on a site you are logged into could potentially access visible information on that page. Users should also be cautious about extensions that request identity permissions, as this can link extension usage to your account. It is always wise to review the developer's privacy policy and confirm the extension only activates on the intended site.
Looking at the fact sheet, the strongest dimension is Maintenance & Ownership, suggesting the extension is actively updated. The weakest is Publisher & Identity, which reflects limited publicly verifiable information about the developer. This is not unusual for individual publishers but is something a careful user may want to consider.
AI-assisted analysis of the documented signals above (permissions, store data, privacy practices) — explains what they mean and the risks typical for this category. Not a hands-on test.

Public records identify the publisher, but no individual founders or a separate registered company are named — which is what holds the Publisher & Identity score back. Less public information about who operates an extension means less you can verify about their long-term accountability.
