What can Audio to Text do?
Choose a recording, set its spoken language, and review the words before exporting. Whisper transcribes speech in its original language. Use the result to search a lecture, check an interview quote, or prepare a transcript. It does not summarize meetings or identify speakers.

Audio to Text: common questions
Useful answers before you begin.
Is my recording uploaded?
No. Recognition runs in your browser. Network requests download the website and public model files. Export your result before leaving; there is no cloud project storage.
How long can my recording be?
The protective limits are 200 MB and 20 minutes. Actual capacity depends on your device. Try a short clip first; the limits are not a guarantee for every phone.
What about noise or accents?
Noise, overlapping voices, accents, and specialist terms can cause errors. Use a clear source recording and listen back to important passages.
