What people use audio transcription for

Interview transcription

Journalists and researchers turn recorded interviews into text: the transcript carries timestamps and speaker labels, so any quote is easy to find and check against the audio.

Lectures and webinars

Upload a lecture, webinar or online course recording and get a written summary you can search by words instead of scrubbing through the timeline.

Meeting minutes from a recording

Transcribe a standup or a call with speaker separation: you can see who said what, and minutes come together in minutes rather than an evening of typing.

Subtitles for video

Speech recognition with timestamps exports to SRT or ASS - ready subtitles for YouTube, Instagram and editing. You can paste a video link straight into the form.

Formats and languages

Supported formats: MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, OGG, WEBM, FLAC, AAC. Audio and video transcription, with export to TXT, Word (DOCX), PDF and SRT/ASS subtitles.

Languages: Kazakh, Russian, Uzbek, Kyrgyz, Turkish, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Mongolian and more - 30+ total.

Frequently asked questions

How to transcribe audio to text online for free?

Sign up, upload a file, select the language and click Transcribe. The free plan includes several minutes of transcription per day - no install, no card.

What is speech recognition and how is it different from typing it out?

Speech recognition converts audio to text automatically with a neural model. An hour-long recording is processed in minutes, where manual transcription would take several hours.

Can I transcribe video files?

Yes. MP4 and WEBM are supported, and you can paste a YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link - the audio track is extracted automatically and turned into text.

Which languages are supported?

Kazakh, Uzbek, Russian, Kyrgyz, Turkish, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Mongolian, English and 30+ more. Language is detected automatically by default.

How accurate is the speech recognition?

Modern recognition models tuned for Central Asian languages are used, with automatic punctuation, word-level timestamps and speaker separation.

Which audio and video formats are supported?

MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, OGG, WEBM, FLAC and AAC. Maximum file size depends on your plan: 10 MB on Free, 200 MB on Starter, unlimited on Creator and Pro.

In what formats can I download the transcript?

Plain text exports to TXT, Word (DOCX) and PDF; with timestamps it exports to SRT and ASS subtitles. You can also copy the text straight from the browser.

Can I transcribe from a video link?

Yes. Paste a YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link and the service downloads the audio track itself. If the video already has captions, the text comes from them and no recognition minutes are used.

Does it identify who is speaking?

Yes - with speaker separation enabled, lines are labelled per speaker, which suits interviews, meetings and podcasts. The language of the recording is detected automatically.

How long are uploads and transcripts kept?

Recordings and results are kept in your history indefinitely on every plan, so you can reopen an old transcript and download it again at any time.
