Transcribe Audio to Text

100% in your browser, so the recording never leaves this device

Loading…

Turn speech into text and subtitles with Whisper running entirely in your browser. The recording never leaves your machine, which matters most for exactly the recordings people need transcribed: interviews, meetings, dictation, legal and medical audio.

How it works

  1. Drop an audio file or a video, and the audio track is decoded on your device.
  2. Pick a model: Fast (≈41 MB, downloaded once) or Accurate (≈77 MB).
  3. Transcribe, watch the text appear live, and download .txt, .srt or .vtt.

Questions

Does my file get uploaded?
No. The models and all processing run inside your browser on your own device. You can verify this yourself: open your browser’s DevTools, watch the Network tab, and process a file: there are no uploads. After the first visit most tools also work fully offline.
How accurate is it?
The models are OpenAI’s Whisper (tiny and base tiers). On clear speech they are very usable; heavy accents, crosstalk and noisy rooms will show errors. The Accurate tier is noticeably better on difficult audio.
Which languages work?
The models are multilingual, and transcription currently runs in English. More languages are planned: the model itself already supports 99.
How long does it take?
On a machine with a supported GPU, a few seconds per minute of audio. On CPU-only machines it is slower but still practical, around a quarter of the recording’s length.
