Convert Speech to Text Instantly

ChatGPT cannot transcribe audio or video files because it does not process audio input. This AI transcription tool uploads your MP3, MP4, WAV and 50+ formats, then delivers word-for-word text with speaker labels and timestamps. It also processes Instagram, YouTube and Facebook video URLs directly.

AI transforms your recordings into accurate, searchable text. Whether it’s a 2-hour meeting, a quick voice memo, or an Instagram Reel, get output with speaker identification and clickable timestamps.

Instagram Transcript and Social Media Support

Paste an Instagram, Facebook, YouTube or Kuaishou URL and get a full transcript in seconds. It extracts audio directly from video URLs, so you never need to download files first.

Popular use cases:

  • Instagram transcript: Transcribe Reels, Stories and posts with speaker labels
  • Facebook video transcript: Convert Facebook videos to searchable text
  • YouTube transcript: Get timestamped output from any YouTube video
  • Kuaishou transcript: Full support for Kuaishou video URLs

Works with public and embedded videos - paste the URL and AI delivers text with 95%+ accuracy for clear audio.

Every Format, Every Language
