How to transcribe audio in 3 steps

  1. Add your audio or video

    Pick an audio or video file — a meeting, an interview, a voice note. It is prepared in your browser before the transcription runs.

  2. Read, correct, reread only what matters

    Each segment keeps its timestamp. Passages the model was unsure about are flagged in amber; fix a word in place and the flag clears. Nothing is invented — an unmarked passage can still be wrong, and the tool says so.

  3. Export the way you need it

    Download plain text, subtitles (SRT) synced to the audio, a searchable PDF, or a Word document — with or without timestamps, your choice.

Why use this transcription tool

Frequently asked questions

Is this transcription tool free?

Yes. You can transcribe, correct and export to text, SRT, PDF or Word with no account and no watermark.

Does it add timestamps and subtitles?

Yes. Each segment keeps its exact moment, so you can export SRT subtitles that stay in sync with your video, or a text with timestamps in the margin.

Can it tell who is speaking?

No, and it won't pretend to. There is no honest way to guess speakers from audio alone, so the tool never labels “Speaker 1” — it only transcribes what was said.

How accurate is it?

It is accurate on clear speech, and it flags the passages where it hesitated so you can reread them. An unmarked passage can still be wrong — the tool says this plainly rather than pretending to be perfect.

What languages and files does it handle?

It transcribes common audio and video files. When a language can't be laid out cleanly in the PDF, the Word export takes over so nothing is lost.
