MP4 to Text Converter

Get the words out of any video: MP4, MOV or WEBM in, editable transcript with timestamps out. The video stays on your device.

How to convert MP4 to text

Drop the MP4 above. Your browser extracts the audio track, and only that is transcribed. You get the full text with timestamps — copy it into notes, a blog post or a script, or download SRT to caption the video.

Common uses

Turning YouTube or TikTok videos you made into blog posts, captioning screen recordings and tutorials, pulling quotes from webinar recordings, and making notes from recorded classes.

MP4 to Text Converter FAQ

Can I paste a YouTube link?

No — upload the video file. We don't download videos from YouTube or other sites.

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.

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.
