AI Speech to Text

Typing out a recording by hand takes four to six times as long as the recording itself, and most free voice to text tools only work while you speak into a microphone. This AI speech to text tool works on files you already have: upload the audio and it transcribes the whole thing, with punctuation, while you get on with something else. A five-minute English recording comes back in well under a minute. Alongside the plain transcript you get an SRT subtitle file with a timestamp for every line, so the same upload gives you meeting notes, a quotable interview, captions for a video or searchable text for a podcast episode. It recognises dozens of languages automatically, and for Chinese you can choose simplified or traditional characters. It is built on Whisper Large v3 Turbo, a speech recognition model trained on a very large amount of multilingual audio, so it copes well with natural speech, different accents and everyday background noise.
