In short
To convert a video to text, upload an MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI or MKV file up to 2 GB, even one that's hours long. You get a text transcript or SRT subtitles in 99 languages. Files up to 30 minutes are free; for longer ones, the first 30 minutes are free and the whole file (up to 3 h) is US$2.
Can I transcribe a 2-hour video?
Yes. Upload the video file, up to 2 GB: MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM or AVI. The first 30 minutes are transcribed free, and your first file needs no account. Transcribing all 2 hours costs US$5 once, with a 7-day Week Pass that never renews. In October 2026, a 145-minute recording took 2 min 45 s once uploaded.
What to expect
Audio extracted automatically
No need to extract the audio yourself — upload the video and TranscribTxt takes the audio track and transcribes it.
99 languages + subtitles
Auto-detected language and SRT export, so you can caption a video in the language it was filmed in.
Deleted after processing
Your video is deleted from our storage after processing, and we don't store transcripts. If you take the free 30-minute preview of a longer video, we keep that upload for up to 24 hours so you can finish it without uploading again.
Accurate on clear audio
AI speech recognition — strong accuracy on clear speech; noisy or overlapping speech is lower.

Common questions
How do I convert a video to text?
Upload your video file to TranscribTxt. The tool extracts the audio track and returns a text transcript. In October 2026, half of the uploaded files were transcribed in 14 seconds or less, and a 145-minute recording took 2 minutes 45 seconds. Times don't include uploading, which depends on your connection. Download it as TXT for a document, or as SRT to add captions to the video.
Which video formats are supported?
MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, MKV and most common containers, plus audio-only files, up to 2 GB on every plan, including the free one.
Is video transcription free?
Yes. Your first file needs no sign-up, and a free account gives you 3 files a week. Files up to 30 minutes are free; for a longer video, the first 30 minutes are free and the whole file (up to 3 h) is US$2. Pro costs US$10 a month and covers up to 100 h of audio. SRT export is included on every plan.
Can I turn the transcript into subtitles?
Yes. Export the result as SRT and load it into YouTube, Premiere, CapCut, or any player to caption your video with accurate, time-coded subtitles.
How accurate is video transcription?
Accuracy depends on the audio. Clear narration and studio recordings transcribe accurately; noisy or overlapping speech is lower. Language is detected automatically across 99 languages.
