What Are Video Chapters?
Video chapters break a video into named sections, so viewers can jump straight to the part they want.
Video Chapters
Video chapters divide a recording into labeled segments, each marking where a topic starts. They turn a single block of video into something a viewer can navigate, like a table of contents.
They matter most in longer videos, where the part someone needs might sit deep in the runtime.
For example, a viewer clicks the chapter for pricing and skips straight to it.
