Free YouTube Chapter and Timestamp Generator | Youtop.ai

Create YouTube chapters and timestamps for your description. Checks 0:00 start, 3+ sections, and 10-second gaps.

Turns your sections into a clean chapter and timestamp list, ready to drop into your description. You type the parts in order, and the tool formats them the way YouTube needs.

It checks that the first line starts at 0:00 and warns you if you have fewer than three chapters. Handy for long tutorials, course-style videos and recipes where viewers want to jump straight to the part they need.

How to use

  1. Paste your section titles and times into the box.
  2. Hit generate to see the formatted list.
  3. Check the 0:00 and chapter-count warnings.
  4. Copy the list into your video description.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are YouTube chapters?

YouTube chapters are timestamp lines in the description. The first must start at 0:00, there should be at least 3 chapters, and each chapter should be at least 10 seconds long.

Can I generate chapters without timestamps?

Yes. Paste a script or outline and the tool estimates a chapter block from your structure. You should still review timings before publishing.
