Entity-linked transcripts are video or audio transcripts that have been edited to include explicit references to named entities — brand names, people, locations, products, and topics — making the content machine-readable and citable by AI systems that index video platforms.

An edited transcript that names entities clearly and uses structured language gives AI crawlers a text layer to work from — turning a video into a retrieval asset rather than just a viewer experience.
