Convert any media to text in three steps

Audio or video, file or link — drop it in and get the text back, no format juggling required.

  1. Step 1

    Add audio or video

    Upload any common audio or video file, or paste a link from YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo and more.

  2. Step 2

    Convert automatically

    Whatever the format, the speech is detected and converted to punctuated, timestamped text.

  3. Step 3

    Export your text

    Save to TXT, DOCX, PDF, or SRT / VTT subtitles.

Every recording in one place

Stop hunting for a separate tool per format — one converter handles audio and video alike.

Audio files

MP3, WAV, M4A and more become clean text in minutes.

Video files

MP4, MOV, MKV and more — the audio is read straight from the video.

Links from the web

Paste a public link and convert it without downloading anything.

Captions included

Export timestamped SRT / VTT for any video you convert.

No setup

No format conversion or app install — it all runs in the browser.

99 languages

Convert speech in almost any language, detected automatically.

Why one tool for both

Most converters do either audio or video, leaving you to convert files first or juggle two apps. SlayScribe handles both: it reads the speech out of any common audio or video — or a link — and converts it to accurate, timestamped text in 99 languages. One place, every recording, exportable the moment it's done.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert both audio and video here?

Yes. Upload any common audio or video file, or paste a link, and it's converted to text.

Do video files need converting first?

No — for video the audio track is read directly, so nothing needs converting first.

What can I export?

TXT, DOCX, PDF, and SRT / VTT subtitles.

Is accuracy the same for audio and video?

Yes — audio and video both go through the same OpenAI Whisper model, and you can edit anything afterwards.

Does it work with non-English recordings?

Yes — 99 languages, detected automatically whether the speech comes from a file or a video.

What does it cost to convert a recording to text?

Converting a recording to text costs nothing within a monthly minutes allowance; Pro adds long files and unlimited uploads.
