## How to convert audio to text

1. Drop an audio or video file into the box above — MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, MOV and WEBM all work. 2. Leave the language on Auto-detect or pick it. 3. The transcript appears as it's processed; fix any word by clicking it, then download TXT, SRT or VTT.

## Accurate, fast, and actually free

Transcription runs on OpenAI's Whisper large-v3-turbo model, which handles accents, background noise and 99 languages well. The file is processed in short pieces, so text starts appearing right away instead of after the whole file.
You don't need an account for files up to 10 minutes. We don't add watermarks, don't hide the text behind a paywall, and don't store your recording.

## Audio to Text Converter FAQ

### Is it really free without signing up?
Yes. Without an account you can transcribe files up to 10 minutes, 3 files a day. A free account gives you 120 free minutes every month and files up to 30 minutes. After the free minutes, transcription uses 1 credit per 5 minutes of audio, and paid plans allow files up to 60 minutes.

### How accurate is it?
Very accurate for clear speech. Heavy background noise, people talking over each other and unusual jargon or names lower it — you can fix any line before exporting.

### Which languages are supported?
99 languages, detected automatically. You can also translate the speech to English as it's transcribed.

### Do you keep my recording or transcript?
No. Your file is converted in your browser and sent in short pieces for transcription; we don't store the audio or the text. Download your transcript before closing the page.
