Video to Text Converter

Upload an audio or video file and get the text back. Files are forwarded to the configured speech-to-text provider and never stored.

File transcription is not switched on yet, so you cannot upload a file here for now. Transcripts from YouTube videos work today and need no file.

Convert a video into text. Give this page a video file and it returns what was said, written down — the conversion step between having a recording and having something you can read and search.

It is deliberately plain: no editing timeline, no playback, no library. Upload the file, get the text.

Frequently asked questions

What happens to the video during conversion?
Its audio track is extracted and sent for speech recognition. The picture is not analysed, and the file is not stored by this site afterwards.
Which formats can I convert?
MP4 and WebM are the reliable ones, since your browser has to be able to decode the file before anything can be extracted from it.
How accurate is the result?
As accurate as the audio allows. Clean single-speaker audio transcribes well; noisy recordings with several people talking over each other do not, and no converter fixes that.
Can I convert a video in another language?
Yes, where the provider supports it. Set the language if the page offers the choice — assuming the wrong one costs a lot of accuracy.
Is there a length limit?
Limits come from upload size and the provider's duration cap rather than the page. Splitting long recordings is usually the pragmatic answer.
