How to convert audio to text
An audio to text converter that respects your recordings
No sign-up needed
Upload a file and read the full transcript. No account, no email, no credit card.
Built for spoken audio
Voice memos, interviews, podcast clips, lectures — clear speech comes out nearly publish-ready.
Results in seconds
Whisper-class AI speech recognition turns a minute of audio into text in a few seconds.
90+ languages
English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese and dozens more — detected automatically.
TXT, SRT & VTT export
Copy plain text for notes and articles, or download timestamped subtitle files for video work.
Nothing is stored
Audio is processed in memory to generate your transcript and then discarded. Your recordings stay yours.
Made for the recordings you actually have
Most audio worth transcribing was never meant to be published: a voice memo you dictated while driving, a 40-minute interview, a lecture you recorded from the third row, a podcast episode you need to quote. Upload the file and the AI returns the full text — searchable, copyable, and far faster than replaying the recording at 2× speed.
Long recordings are transcribed in parts and stitched automatically, so an hour-long interview works the same as a 30-second memo.
Private by design
Interviews and meetings are sensitive by default, so the pipeline is built to forget: your file is processed in memory to generate the transcript and then discarded. Nothing is stored, there is no upload history, and no one reviews your audio.
That also means you should copy or download the transcript before leaving the page — there is intentionally no server-side archive to go back to.
Video links work here too
The same engine transcribes video: paste a YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X or Facebook link in the link tab, or use the video to text converter for any video file. Need subtitles with timing? The subtitle generator exports editor-ready SRT and VTT.
