Downloads courses, videos and books from 1,800+ sites into one free desktop app.
OmniGet is a free, open-source (GPL-3.0) desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux that downloads Udemy and Hotmart courses, YouTube/Instagram/X/Pinterest/TikTok video, and books, then plays, reads or transcribes them in the same window. It runs on yt-dlp and FFmpeg under the hood, installing and updating them automatically so there's no terminal or flag cheat sheet to manage. No account, no ads, no telemetry on what you download.
What holds up
- +Free and open source (GPL-3.0), with no account, ads, or telemetry on what you download.
- +Covers 1,800+ sites plus native Udemy/Hotmart/Telegram support yt-dlp alone doesn't have.
- +Bundles a course player, PDF/EPUB reader and transcription in the same window after download.
Mind the limits
- −If you just want raw files from a terminal, the docs say plain yt-dlp is the better tool.
- −Logged-in downloads need the separate browser extension to pull your cookies first.
