How to unlock a post's transcript and analysis
Updated August 10, 2026
When a post catches your eye, ContentScout lets you dig in two ways: pull the transcript (the video's spoken text) or generate the full analysis of the post. Each one is charged in credits, per post and only once: the unlock stays saved forever.
What you unlock
- Transcript: the video's full text. It only exists on video posts: a photo has nothing to transcribe.
- Analysis: breaks down the post's style, hooks and structure, with the hook, why it works, and why it's relevant to you based on your profile.
How to do it
Choose transcript or analysis
Each button shows its credit cost before charging you. Confirm to continue.
Read the result
The transcript or the analysis opens right there, in the post's detail.
Come back anytime
Once generated, that post's button turns dark and reads as free: reopening it never spends credits.
The cost is charged once per post and the unlock never expires. If a button already looks dark and marked as free, that content is already yours.
Frequently asked questions
Can I generate only the transcript?
Yes. The transcript and the analysis are independent: pull just one or both, and each is charged separately.
The post has no transcript button.
Transcripts only exist for video posts. And if a video is music-only or has no speech, there's no text to pull.
Where do the credits come from?
From your balance. You can see how many you have left at the bottom of the sidebar and manage them in Subscription.
Is the analysis the same everywhere?
Yes. Whether it's a post from an account in Tracking, from a keyword, or one imported by link, you get the same breakdown: the hook, why it works, and why it's relevant to you.
