Upload the file or paste the link.
Turn an MP4 video file into text: a word-timed transcript, .srt and .vtt subtitle files and plain text. The audio is extracted first; since the picture isn't processed, it runs fast.

Auto-detect is available; setting the language gives more accurate results.
Transcript, .srt, .vtt and plain text download together.
MP4 is a container: the audio inside can be AAC, MP3 or another codec. Camera and screen recordings sometimes carry several audio tracks, for example the microphone and system sound separately. In those files, which track carries the speech directly affects the result.
The picture isn't used for transcription at all, so a 4K MP4 and a 720p MP4 give the same text accuracy. Resolution only matters when you make clips or burn in captions.
The biggest factor is the microphone. A clean video file is transcribed almost perfectly; background music, echoey rooms and people talking over each other raise the error rate. Names and brand names are spelled by ear, so it's worth reviewing the output once.
For long recordings the whole file isn't downloaded; only the audio is fetched first, so even hour-long recordings start quickly.
You can pull clips from the same recording right away: the transcript is already word-timed, so clip boundaries never land mid-sentence. No need to re-upload to burn in captions or translate.
With the text in hand, the recording itself becomes searchable: turning it into a blog post, a newsletter summary or show notes takes far longer without a transcript.
The source file is kept only for a while so you can re-process it, then deleted automatically. For meeting and customer recordings that matters: nothing is used to train models. Your outputs stay in your account until you delete them.
No. You can also paste a link; in that case only the audio is fetched and the file is never uploaded.
Yes. Once the transcript is done, starting a clip or caption job from the same source doesn't reprocess it.
Recordings up to three hours are processed, within your plan's monthly minutes.
The transcript is word-timed; speaker labeling isn't available yet.
