Web Tools
Tools that take a URL and give back something useful. Download media from any supported platform — YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, Vimeo — scrape OpenGraph and metadata from any page, or extract audio without ever pulling the full video to disk. The plumbing layer between the open web and your pipeline.
Extract OpenGraph and Twitter Card metadata from any URL — title, description, image, video, canonical and og:type — the fields a social-sharing preview card relies on.
Pull rich metadata from a media URL (YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo, direct file links, more) without downloading the file. Useful as a pre-flight for Download Video / Extract Audio.
Download a video from any supported platform (YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo, Twitter, more) via yt-dlp. Run URL Metadata first to confirm format options.
Download a video's audio track from any supported platform (yt-dlp) and convert on the way out to mp3, wav or aac. Useful for transcription and audio-enhancement pipelines.
From any URL — straight into your pipeline
Download, scrape, inspect. yt-dlp under the hood, REST on top.
Frequently asked questions
Which platforms can I download from?
Anything yt-dlp supports — YouTube, TikTok, Instagram (public reels and posts), Vimeo, X, Twitch VODs, and many smaller platforms. Private or login-walled content is not supported.
Why use these instead of running yt-dlp myself?
Three reasons: yt-dlp is a moving target (platforms change their internals weekly and the binary needs frequent updates), it's a chunky native dep you don't want shipping in your CI image, and the URL Metadata tool lets you decide whether the download is worth it before committing storage.
What does the OpenGraph scraper return?
Title, description, og:image, og:video preview, Twitter Card fields, canonical URL, and the page's primary language. Useful for building rich-link previews, auto-populating share cards, or seeding vision-language model prompts from a URL.
Is there a quality / resolution selector for video downloads?
Yes — pick a tier (e.g. 360p, 720p, 1080p, max) and the tool grabs the closest available stream. For the audio-only extract, the format selector accepts MP3, WAV, AAC, OGG and FLAC.
