How It Works

1

Upload a supported video or audio file

Drag and drop your file into the upload area or click to browse files. Accepted formats: MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and WebM. Maximum file size is 25 MB. You can also paste a supported video URL instead of uploading a file.

  • One file is transcribed at a time
  • Files larger than 25 MB will be rejected
  • Supported URL sources include YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook video links
2

Choose available transcription options if supported

Select the Upload tab for a local file or the URL tab to paste a link. The tool sends your content to a server-side AI model for speech-to-text processing.

  • Upload mode: sends your file directly to the transcription service
  • URL mode: retrieves the media first, then sends it for transcription
3

Start the transcription process

Click Transcribe and wait for the server to process your content. Processing time depends on file size, duration, and server availability.

  • Files are uploaded to the server for AI processing
  • Processing time varies by file size, duration, and server load
4

Review and copy or download the generated text if available

When processing succeeds, the transcript appears in a text area. Review the text carefully — AI-generated transcripts may contain mistakes. Copy the text to your clipboard or download it as a .txt file.

  • Read through the transcript and check for errors before using it
  • Use the Copy button for clipboard or Download .txt to save the file
  • AI-generated transcripts are not a substitute for professional transcription

Common Use Cases

Interviews & Meeting Notes

Convert recorded client interviews, Zoom meetings, and voice memos into structured, editable text for documentation.

Video Subtitles & Captions

Generate speech-to-text drafts for video podcasts, social media clips, and tutorials to speed up subtitle creation.

Lectures & Study Summaries

Turn recorded university lectures and presentations into written study guides and searchable research notes.

Tips & Best Practices

Use clear audio for better results

Recordings with minimal background noise, clear speech, and standard pronunciation produce more accurate transcripts. Heavy accents, overlapping speakers, and poor audio quality can reduce accuracy.

Keep files under the size limit

Files larger than 25 MB cannot be processed. For long recordings, consider splitting the file into smaller segments or compressing the audio before uploading.

Always review AI-generated transcripts

AI transcription may mishear names, technical terms, or words in noisy sections. Read through the full transcript and verify any sections that will be used for important or official purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does AI speech transcription work?

Your audio or video file is transmitted over an encrypted HTTPS connection to a server-side AI speech recognition model that analyzes voice patterns and transcribes spoken words into written text.

What factors affect transcription accuracy?

Accuracy depends on audio clarity, background noise, speaker pronunciation, microphone distance, and overlapping voices. Clear recordings with minimal background sound produce the most accurate transcripts.

Should I review the generated transcript?

Yes. AI models may occasionally misinterpret names, technical terms, or speech in noisy segments. We recommend reviewing and editing the text before using it for official or publication purposes.

What file formats and sizes are supported?

You can upload MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and WebM files up to 25 MB, or paste a supported public video URL.

How can I transcribe recordings longer than 25 MB?

For long audio or video recordings, consider splitting the file into smaller sections or using our MP4 to MP3 tool at 128 kbps to reduce file size before uploading.
