Transcribe an MP3Everything happens in one place
Upload, process, review, copy, and download without leaving the homepage or creating a separate project.
Results designed for reading
Transcripts are presented as natural, readable paragraphs instead of raw word fragments or technical response data.
Clear limits before you upload
Supported file type and size limits are shown upfront, so you know what can be processed before selecting a file.
Clear expectations make better transcripts.
Automatic transcription can be highly useful, but every recording is different. Here is what can affect the result—and how your audio is handled.
No audio library. No background storage.
What can affect the result
Background noise
Constant noise, echo, or a distant microphone can make words harder to detect.
Overlapping speakers
When people talk over each other, some words or speaker changes may be missed.
Accents and fast speech
Strong accents or very fast speech can require more careful review.
Names and technical terms
Unfamiliar names, acronyms, and specialist vocabulary may be transcribed incorrectly.
How your data is handled
The audio is not stored
Your MP3 is held in memory only for the current request. This site does not write the audio to its database, object storage, or local file storage.
Usage records stay limited
For signed-in use, a billing record can include the filename, selected mode, billable duration, and credits used—but not the audio itself.
For legal, medical, or other important use, review the transcript against the original audio.
Questions, answered plainly
Clear answers about files, transcription quality, credits, privacy, and account access.
The first version accepts valid MP3 audio files. Other audio and video formats are not uploaded to the transcription service.
