Timestamp Generator for YouTube
Turn your notes into chapters YouTube will actually show.
How to use it
- Write one chapter per line with its time, like 1:30 Setup.
- Fix anything we flag: YouTube skips chapters that break its rules.
- Copy the list into your video description.
Questions
- Why aren't my chapters showing on YouTube?
- YouTube only shows chapters when the first one starts at 0:00, there are at least 3, and each is at least 10 seconds long. This tool checks all three.
- Where do the timestamps go?
- In the video description, one per line, in order.
- Does this generate chapters with AI?
- No. You write the chapter names and times; we format and check them. Nothing leaves your browser.
- What time formats work?
- 1:30, 01:30 or 1:02:03 for videos over an hour. Put the time at the start or the end of the line.
