# TokCaption — Full Product Documentation for LLMs

## Overview
TokCaption is a web-based TikTok transcript generator at https://www.tokcaption.com. It extracts
accessible TikTok caption tracks and converts them into structured, timestamped transcripts. Users
can export transcripts as TXT, SRT, VTT, CSV (free tier), plus JSON and PDF (paid tier). Four
built-in AI agents analyze and enhance the extracted content.

## How it works
TokCaption reads the caption track that TikTok attaches to public videos. This means output matches
the source word-for-word with no AI drift or hallucination. It does NOT perform speech-to-text or
audio transcription — accuracy depends on the quality of captions the creator or TikTok published.

## Core features

### Transcript extraction
- Paste any public TikTok URL to extract caption track data
- Output includes timestamps for every segment
- Supports 50+ languages (whatever TikTok provides)
