A Chrome extension powered by a local yt-dlp + ffmpeg backend: fast, private, and supports bulk downloads.
If you see it, you can download it. The Chrome extension automatically detects every video on the page you're viewing, displays them neatly with thumbnails, and downloads them to your computer with a single click—even YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook Reels, thanks to the yt-dlp "engine" running right on your PC.
