What you can do with the transcript

More than text — the post-transcript work, built in.

Every MP3 transcript opens with an AI sidebar — search, summarize, chat, export.

Search any line

Click a line to jump to the second in the audio player. Search a name or phrase — every match returns with a timestamp.

Summarize the audio

One click produces a chapter-marked summary, key quotes, and a short social blurb.

Chat with the file

Ask any question of the audio — “what did the speaker conclude?” or “list every action item.” The AI answers with quoted timestamps.

Export in any format

DOCX, SRT, VTT, TXT, JSON — every format included on every pack, no Pro paywall.

FAQ

MP3-to-text, answered.

How do I transcribe an MP3 to text?

Drop the MP3 onto the upload box above. A text transcript with word-level timestamps returns in about a minute per 30 minutes of audio. Preview with no signup; $0.99 opens your first transcript in full, at any length. Packs start at $8 for 1,000 minutes after that.

Does the MP3 bitrate matter?

No. 64 kbps voice memos through 320 kbps studio files all work. Lower bitrates with heavy background noise may dip in accuracy, but the typical range is handled well.

What formats can I export?

DOCX, SRT, VTT, TXT, and JSON — all included on every pack. No Pro-tier paywall on any export.

How fast is it?

A 30-minute MP3 in about a minute, a 1-hour file in about two minutes.

Will it label multiple speakers?

Yes. Every voice is labelled automatically as Speaker 1, Speaker 2, and so on; rename them after the transcript loads.

What's the file-size limit?

Up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file; without credits, files up to 3 hours. The box on this page takes files up to 500 MB; larger files continue on the upload page.

Is my audio private?

Yes. Your audio and transcripts are never used to train AI models.
