What is Stepify?
Stepify is an AI-powered tool that transforms YouTube videos into structured, actionable content including summaries, step-by-step guides, and podcast articles. Users simply paste a YouTube link, and Stepify's AI models process the full transcript to identify key moments and structure everything with clickable timestamps. The tool delivers clean, organized content in seconds, allowing users to jump to any moment in the original video instantly.
The platform uses advanced AI models that understand context, nuance, and technical terminology, with accuracy typically above 95% for clear audio content. Stepify supports 50+ languages through YouTube subtitles, and the Pro plan includes multi-language output and translation capabilities. The tool breaks long content into chapters so no detail is lost, making it ideal for videos up to 5 hours on the Pro plan.
Stepify is designed for learners, marketers, researchers, recipe enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to extract knowledge from video content without passive watching. It reduces 2+ hours of video watching to 5 minutes of structured reading while capturing every key insight. The tool is particularly valuable for creating tutorials, repurposing video interviews, following recipe instructions, and studying educational content.
Key output formats include summary, step-by-step guide, and podcast article. Pro users can export to Markdown, PDF, and DOCX, preserving all formatting and timestamps. The platform also provides downloadable transcripts and uses both YouTube Subtitles and Whisper transcription for enhanced accuracy.
