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

Transcribe Interviews and Recordings

Convert interview recordings or voice memos into searchable text. Review the AI-generated transcript and correct any mistakes before sharing or publishing.

Create Notes from Video Content

Paste a supported video URL to get a text version of the spoken content. Useful for capturing notes from lectures, talks, or presentations when the media URL is accessible.

Draft Text from Audio Files

Upload an audio file to generate a rough text draft. Review and edit the output before using it for captions, notes, or documentation.

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 do I convert video to text online?

Upload a supported audio or video file (MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, or WebM, up to 25 MB), or paste a supported video URL. Click Transcribe and wait for the AI to process your content. When processing succeeds, review the generated text, then copy it or download it as a .txt file.

Is this AI video to text converter free?

Yes. You can transcribe supported video and audio files from your browser without creating an account or paying.

How accurate is AI video transcription?

AI transcription accuracy depends on audio clarity, language, accent, background noise, speaker overlap, and recording quality. Clear, well-recorded speech with minimal background noise produces better results. AI-generated transcripts may contain mistakes — always review the text before using it.

Which video or audio formats are supported?

The uploader accepts MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and WebM files up to 25 MB. You can also paste a supported video URL. The transcription service may not process every file successfully depending on encoding, duration, and server availability.

Why did my video transcription fail?

Transcription can fail if the file exceeds the 25 MB limit, the format or encoding is not supported, the audio contains no recognizable speech, or the browser does not support its codecs or have enough memory. Try a smaller file or a different format.

What should I check before using an AI-generated transcript?

Review the transcript for accuracy, especially if it will be used for important purposes. Check for speaker attribution errors, mistranslated names or terms, and missing or unclear sections. AI-generated transcripts may contain mistakes and are not a substitute for human review or professional transcription where accuracy is critical.
