What this transcript tool handles
02
Convert MP4 to text without subtitles
Speech recognition works from the media audio, so the MP4 does not need embedded subtitles or a separate caption file.
03
Create an MP4 transcript with timestamps
Standard transcription automatically detects the spoken language and returns word-level timing for review, quotes, editing, and subtitle generation.
04
Convert MP4 to SRT, VTT, TXT, or JSON
Reuse the completed artifact as TXT, structured JSON, SubRip SRT, or WebVTT without uploading and transcribing the same file again.
Example transcription jobs

01
Standard transcription — 10 credits per minute
Includes automatic language detection and word-level timestamps. This mode does not add speaker labels.
02

Adds speaker labels and audio-event tags. Enabling keyterm guidance costs 540 credits per hour.
03
Reusable files stay with the project
The completed result records the selected mode, actual duration, and exports. TXT, JSON, SRT, and VTT downloads do not start another transcription job.
From media source to reusable transcript
See how one public link or uploaded file becomes structured text with timing data and reusable download formats.
01
Start with a link or media file
Paste a public video URL or upload one audio or video file. The sandbox downloads and normalizes the source before transcription.
02
Preserve timing and transcript structure
Speech is normalized into searchable text, timed words, and readable segments. Speaker-aware mode can also retain speaker labels and audio events.
03
Export without transcribing again
Reuse the completed result as plain text, structured JSON, SRT captions, or WebVTT without another transcription job.
