Is YouTube Translate & Speak safe?

Clean risk

Translates video subtitles in real time on supported video platforms.

This extension adds translated captions to videos on YouTube, TED, Udemy, and Coursera, with side-by-side original and translated text. It can read translated text aloud, generate captions with Soniox when subtitles are unavailable, summarize YouTube videos with supported AI providers, customize subtitle styling, and export captions as SRT files.

Shared hosts - 1 hostname

Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
