Video to Text Converter

Get every spoken word of an interview, lesson or vlog as text, with timestamps. The speech model runs on your device, so the recording stays with you.

Using the Video to Text Converter

1

Choose a recording

Add a video or audio file. Pick the accuracy level and the spoken language, or leave it on automatic.

2

Let it listen

The AI model works through the speech and shows its progress and the remaining time.

3

Correct and export

Fix names or terms directly in the text, then download SRT, VTT or TXT, or copy it.

Which export do you need?

All three contain the same words; they differ in what other programs expect.

Video to Text Converter Questions & Answers

How accurate is the transcription?
Clear speech with little background noise gives the best results. The more accurate model is slower and downloads a larger file the first time.
Why does the first run take longer?
The speech model is downloaded to your browser once. Later runs use the cached copy.
Is there a faster option for long files?
You can choose the AI server option: a small audio-only copy is sent for transcription and not stored. The video itself is never uploaded.
Can it handle songs?
Singing is harder than speech. The most accurate setting works best for lyrics.

From Spoken Words to Searchable Text

Text is easier to search, quote, translate and reuse than audio. A video to text converter turns hours of talking into something you can skim in minutes.

Who uses transcripts

  • Students turning recorded lectures into study notes.
  • Journalists and researchers quoting interviews accurately.
  • Creators adding subtitles and writing descriptions from their own videos.
  • Teams documenting meetings they recorded.

Getting a cleaner result

Set the spoken language when you know it, rather than leaving detection on automatic. If the recording is noisy, clean it first with the Background Noise Remover.

What to do with the text

Paste a long transcript into the AI Video Summary Generator for key points, or use it to write titles and chapters with the AI Title & Tag Writer. Want captions inside the picture? Use the Video Caption Maker.
