BulkTranscripts gives agents clean YouTube transcripts plus channel/playlist/search lookups. A transcript costs 1 credit when first added to the caller's library; repeat reads from that library are free and instant. Live lookups cost 1 credit. Anonymous use includes 30 free credits, limited by public IP and by device when available — no signup. If a batch crosses the remaining balance, completed transcripts are returned and the response clearly says how many were stopped for lack of credits. For more credits the user buys a one-time pack at https://bulktranscripts.co/#pricing and connects with the license key as a Bearer token (or ?key=… on the /mcp URL). get_latest_videos is always free — poll it to detect new uploads, then fetch only what's new.
