Upload guide

Before you upload an audio file

The fastest path is a short, clear recording and a simple TXT transcript. Add library and export features only when the job needs them.

Use a real audio file

Start with MP3, M4A, WAV, OGG, Opus, AAC, FLAC, or AMR audio instead of a video container.

Keep the first test short

The free tool is built for one file up to 5 minutes and 100 MB, enough to verify transcript quality.

Save only useful output

Download TXT first, then sign in when transcripts need timestamps, exports, or library search.
