Video to text
Turn a video into text
Generate a timed transcript from a video, fix the words that matter, and download TXT, SRT or VTT — all in the browser.
Drop a video to caption
MP4, MOV, WebM, or MKV. Drop a clip — get captions you can style and export.
Answer first
Video to text, without a separate transcript tool
AutoCaptions extracts the audio from your video, transcribes it into timed words, and keeps the transcript editable. That means the same pass can produce a plain-text transcript for notes or show descriptions, a subtitle file for YouTube, or a captioned video for social.
- TXT for notes, descriptions and drafts.
- SRT/VTT for players and platforms.
- Captioned MP4 for muted feeds.
What you get
| Transcript | Timed text you can edit |
| TXT | Plain text, free |
| SRT / VTT | Subtitle files, free |
| MP4 | Captions burned in |
Video to text questions
Can I turn a video into text for free?
Yes. The editor and TXT downloads are free. The video stays in your browser; only the extracted audio is sent for transcription.
Is this a transcript or captions?
Both. AutoCaptions returns timed words and editable caption lines. You can download a plain TXT transcript, SRT/VTT, or export a captioned MP4.
How accurate is the transcript?
It depends on the audio. Clean single-speaker recordings are usually close; accents, noise and jargon need a review pass. Check names and numbers before using the transcript.
