YT Timestamp is a free tool that allows you to create direct links to specific moments within YouTube videos. Instead of sending someone a full video and asking them to skip to a certain point, you can generate a link that starts playing exactly at the timestamp you want.

Creating a timestamp link is simple:

1. Paste a YouTube video URL or video ID into the input field
2. Enter the hours, minutes, and seconds for the timestamp
3. Click "Generate Timestamp Link"
4. Copy the generated link or use one of our sharing options
