How to convert audio to text

Four steps, usually under a minute. Nothing to install.

  1. Upload the audio

    Drop an MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG or FLAC file into the box, or choose it from your device.

  2. Pick the language

    Leave it on Auto detect, or choose the spoken language yourself.

  3. Press Transcribe

    The speech is turned into text with punctuation and paragraphs.

  4. Save the text

    Copy it, or download it as a .txt file for Word, Docs or Notes.

What audio can you convert to text?

Almost any recording with speech in it. Phone voice memos, recorded lectures, podcast episodes, interviews, phone calls, meeting recordings and voice notes from messaging apps all work. The converter reads the audio track, so it does not matter which app made the file.

Clear audio gives the best transcript. A recording made close to the speaker, with little background noise, is usually transcribed almost word for word. Music, echo and people talking over each other make it harder.
