The product

One engine. Five steps. You choose.

Paste a link and Qafila downloads, transcribes, translates, summarises and makes flashcards — all in one engine. Use the whole pipeline or only the step you need. Below is how it works, and beneath that every feature in detail.

How it works

From link to study kit in one click.

You paste a link and click once. The engine does the rest — and you decide exactly where the pipeline stops.

The features

Every step, in detail.

Everything the engine does, explained — with what you get at each step.

Download01

Download from any source

Paste a link from YouTube, a course platform, a recorded lecture or a podcast. Qafila pulls it in at the quality you choose — from whole playlists to a single clip.

  • Choose the resolution, or just the audio
  • Whole playlists in one go
  • Works with the sources you use every day
  • Stop here — downloading only is fine
Transcript02

Every minute of speech becomes text

A clear, searchable transcript with timestamps — jump straight to the moment you are looking for. Not a single word missed.

  • Searchable, with timestamps
  • Jump straight to the right moment
  • Copy or export the text
  • Works with any language in the recording
Translation03

Read foreign-language material in your own language

A French lecture or a German course becomes a translated transcript and a translated summary in seconds. Learn in the language you think in.

  • Multiple languages in and out
  • Keeps technical terms and context
  • Original and translation side by side
  • Optional — skip it if it is already in your language
Summary04

Forty-eight minutes, cut down to a single page

The main thread, the concepts you need to know and the examples that make them stick. You review the essentials instead of rewatching the whole recording.

  • Key concepts highlighted
  • Examples that stick with you
  • Review the essentials, not the whole recording
  • Ready to print or share
Flashcards05

A ready-made set of flashcards

Every lecture becomes a set to practise with — ready for review. No more typing out cards at 1 a.m.

  • Pulled automatically from the essentials
  • Ready for review
  • Fully offline
  • Exportable to your own tool

In practice

Subtitles in your own language — and more.

Download, a timestamped transcript and translation together give you a subtitle file (.srt) in the language you want. But that is just one of the ways people use Qafila.

Subtitles

Turn a video or lecture into subtitles

Paste a link or pick a file. Qafila transcribes with timestamps and translates into the language you want — you get a ready-made subtitle file, ready to watch along with.

“Welcome home, my son.”

We translated classic Arabic series fully into Dutch subtitles — so our teenagers watch along in their own language.
