Video and audio files remain the main source of information for most people. Watching or listening takes significantly more time than reading a transcription, especially if you don't need the whole text and just want to scan it for the essential information.

In all these cases audio transcription is needed, and nowadays, it's a sign of good manners to offer one along with the audio or video or even as a separate file so that everyone can download it and read it offline.

It is a hard and demanding job to listen to a recording and convert it to text manually, so we'd recommend using automated tools, such as our audio-to-text converter. It's an online service run in a browser, so it never causes compatibility issues or exhausts your device memory.

At the end of the processing, you'll get a TXT or SRT file, and as a bonus, you can also save the video file with embedded captions.
