About AudJet

AudJet is a free, browser-based tool for downloading audio from YouTube videos. It exists because most other free downloaders are riddled with ads, fake quality claims, tracking, or worse.

The principles

  • Honest about quality. We tell you exactly what you're getting: Opus 160kbps, AAC 128kbps, or MP3 128kbps. No fake "320kbps" or "HD audio" marketing.
  • Anonymous by design. No accounts, no email collection, no tracking pixels. See our Privacy Policy.
  • No software to install. Pure web app. No installer, no extension, no "helper app" that becomes a permanent part of your machine.
  • Streaming proxy. Files never touch our disks. Bytes go from YouTube through us to your browser, in memory only.
  • Free, with a sane rate limit. 3 requests per 10 minutes per IP. Enough for personal use; not enough to abuse.

How to use it

  1. Open the homepage.
  2. Paste a YouTube URL.
  3. Pick a format (Opus, AAC, or MP3).
  4. Click Download.

What we don't do

  • Playlists. Pick one video at a time.
  • Videos longer than 15 minutes.
  • Live streams. Wait for the recording to finish.
  • Anything that requires a YouTube login (private, members-only, etc.).

If something breaks

YouTube's anti-bot defenses evolve constantly. Sometimes downloads fail or take longer than usual. If you hit a persistent error, wait a few minutes and try again — most issues are transient. If the homepage shows a maintenance screen, something larger is wrong; we're probably fixing it.
