Chapters need your video's captions

The Kit reads each chapter's time from your video's timed captions. It never makes up a timestamp, so no captions means no chapters.

YouTube's chapter rules, which the Kit follows

The first chapter starts at 00:00.
There are at least 3 chapters.
They're listed in time order.
Each chapter is at least 10 seconds long.

Chapters that follow these rules still aren't shown on every video or every channel; that's YouTube's call.

Where to get your captions

YouTube often makes captions for your video already. In YouTube Studio, select Content and click your video, then Subtitles. Open your language, tap ⋮, then Download. In the Kit, upload that file or paste its text.

What else is in your Kit

3 title options, each in a different style, from what you say in the video.
A description with your link first, a short summary in your words and up to 3 hashtags.
The full Ready-to-Post Kit: titles, description, chapters and up to 3 Shorts moments.

Get chapters for a video you already made.
