Looking for that one word? Type the word — Contextly shows every point in the video where it appears, complete with timestamps and a visual marker on the timeline.

Summarize

Don’t have time for the full video? Contextly condenses it into a summary you can read in minutes — available in three lengths: concise, medium, or detailed.

Chapters

Chapters

Navigate like a pro. Contextly splits any video into chapters so you can jump straight to the part that matters.

Shorten

Shorten Video

Want the highlights only? Contextly creates a shorter version of the video — automatically skipping the excessive parts and keeping just the key points.
