How To Use the Convert Audio & Video to Text tool

Choose the Language and Start Transcribing

Once your file is uploaded or the YouTube link is added, choose the language and click the "Do the magic!" button. The tool will automatically begin transcribing the audio or video to text, providing you with a full transcript of the spoken content.
