Free Audio to Text Converter

Drop an audio or video file or record from your microphone, and get a transcript with timestamps plus TXT, SRT, VTT or JSON files. Whisper runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

How it works

  1. Drop an audio or video file, or record from your microphone.
  2. The first time, your browser downloads the speech model and keeps it for next time.
  3. The transcript appears as it is recognized. Copy it, or download TXT, SRT, VTT or JSON.

FAQ

Is it really free?

Yes. There is no sign-up and no limit on files or minutes, because the transcription runs on your own device.

Is my audio uploaded?

No. The file is read and transcribed in your browser. Only the speech model is downloaded once and saved in your browser.

Which languages work?

99 languages, detected automatically or chosen from the list. You can also translate the speech into English.

Which files can I use?

MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, Opus, FLAC, WebM, and the audio of MP4 and MOV videos. You can also record from your microphone.

How do I make subtitles?

After the transcription, press SRT or VTT to download a subtitle file with timings for YouTube, video editors and players.
