MP3 to text

MP3 is where almost everything ends up: a phone recorder, an exported episode, audio pulled off a stream. It's compressed, so the thing that matters is the bitrate — from 128 kbps up the speech is well defined and transcription has room to spare. Below that it still works, but the mic needed to be close to whoever was talking.

Three steps and the text is yours

Nothing to install, no plugin, no converting the file first.

  1. 1

    Upload the file

    Audio or video, up to 5 GB. If it's video we only read the audio track — no need to extract anything first.

  2. 2

    Pick the language

    Or leave it on Detect. Pinning the language pays off when the audio is short, noisy or switches between two languages.

  3. 3

    Download the text

    It runs in the background and you can close the tab. When it's done it shows up in your list, ready to download.
