Get the text out of any recording
Just want the text?
Drop any video or audio: phone videos, voice memos, OBS or Zoom recordings, podcasts, lectures, music (MP4, MOV, MP3, M4A, WAV and more). We do the rest.
Want your AI to read it?
- Click your AI's logo and follow the 2–3 steps.
- In your AI, say "Transcribe my video".
- Your AI gives you a link: open it, drop your file, and your AI reads the transcript and answers.
Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Le Chat, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and Gemini CLI.
Questions
I have a YouTube link. We can't download from links. Get your own video from YouTube Studio (Content → ⋮ → Download) and drop that file.
My file is huge. Drop it anyway. We only send the sound, which is much smaller. If it's still too big, the page tells you what to do.
Is it private? We only ever receive audio, delete it right after transcription, delete transcripts after 30 days, and never train on your recordings.
