What is speech to text?
Speech to text converts spoken language into written text. It is useful for more than one-off dictation: teams document meetings, creators repurpose podcasts and videos, and researchers review interviews without replaying every minute of audio.
Unlike typing notes by hand, a transcript preserves the full spoken record so you can search, quote, summarize, edit, and export it later. This page stays focused on your current task, while signed-in history is kept separately on the Recordings page.
Why convert speech to text
When recordings pile up, typing them out by hand slows every workflow. Converting speech to text turns voice into a practical text layer for editing, search, collaboration, and publishing.
Create reusable text
Export as TXT, SRT, DOCX, or JSON so one recording can feed captions, documents, and analysis.
Work across languages
Auto-detect the language or choose a source language for interviews, lessons, and recordings from global teams.
Stay focused on one task
This page shows current-session results only, while older recordings stay on the Recordings page.
What you can transcribe
The same speech to text workflow supports many content-heavy jobs, from internal documentation to publishing pipelines.
Meetings and team calls: capture decisions, questions, next steps, and customer feedback.
Podcasts and creator content: turn episodes into articles, summaries, social clips, and captions.
Interviews and research: search participant comments, quotes, and recurring themes.
Lectures and lessons: convert teaching audio into notes, captions, and study material.
Video captions: prepare SRT drafts for tutorials, demos, and short-form videos.
Business notes: document sales calls, support calls, user interviews, and project updates.
