Overview
What this release is
The program does one thing and does it without ceremony. Paste an address, choose a quality and a format, and the file lands in the destination folder. There is no browser extension requirement, no queue of adverts, and no conversion step that quietly re-encodes everything to a lower bitrate.
The paid tier is where the useful limits disappear. Whole playlists and channels download in one action rather than a handful of items at a time, several files transfer in parallel, and the subscription feature checks a channel periodically and fetches anything new without being asked twice.
Quality handling is more careful than most competitors. The highest available stream is offered rather than a re-encoded approximation, high frame rate and high dynamic range variants are listed separately when they exist, and audio can be extracted on its own without passing the video through a converter first.
Subtitles are handled properly. They download as separate files or burn into the video, automatic captions are included where they exist, and multiple languages can be fetched in a single pass rather than one at a time.

Questions
Before you start
Does it need a browser extension?
No. Addresses are pasted directly into the program.
Why is a quality option missing?
Only the streams the source actually provides are listed. Nothing is upscaled to fill the gap.
Can it resume an interrupted download?
Yes, provided the source still serves the same stream. Otherwise it restarts the item.
What happens when a site changes?
Extraction breaks until the engine is updated. This build carries the current engine.
