Grab high-resolution thumbnails, metadata, and captions from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, and X videos. Multi-resolution, batch, and transcript export.
URLs are proxied anonymously via our edge. No logs, no tracking.
Supported: YouTube & Vimeo (stable). TikTok / X are experimental — those platforms block most programmatic fetches. Enter to fetch, ⌘/Ctrl+K to clear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this work on private or unlisted videos?
No. Only public videos accessible via each platform's public oEmbed endpoint are supported.
Do you re-encode the thumbnails?
No. The original image bytes are served unchanged from the platform CDN.
Is my URL stored?
No. Requests are proxied through our edge route for CORS but never logged.
Why do some videos have fewer resolutions?
Each platform publishes different sizes. YouTube, for example, only has maxresdefault for HD uploads.
