Seek - Ctrl+F for YouTube videos
Search what was said. Jump instantly to the exact moment.
Seek is a Chrome extension for YouTube watch pages. Ctrl+K opens a search over the transcript so you can jump to where something was said. Think Ctrl+F for spoken content. YouTube’s native transcript panel works, but it’s slow to scan. If you’re halfway through a forty-minute talk and want the bit where someone mentions “context window”, you’re scrolling a wall of text or scrubbing the timeline and hoping. I kept doing that on tutorial videos and conference talks, and I wanted a faster way in.
I built a command palette that overlays the player. Open it with Ctrl+K or the extension icon, search the transcript, and the player seeks to the match. Results show the matching line with surrounding context so you can tell similar hits apart.
It's solving a problem for me, but if it saves you some time and earns your stars, I'd love some reviews.
