Video to text

Understand the content first, then decide how to cut it.

Turn spoken video content into a readable transcript for finding passages, checking wording and preparing edits. Pay particular attention to names, numbers and terminology.

A video and its searchable transcript side by side

into text you can keep working with.

Less scrubbing back and forth, more clear leads. A transcript helps you find content faster, check the wording and move into the next step.

Carry on creating after tidying up

Proofread text can go straight into editing, captions and content work.

Different kinds of video,
keeping the words that are actually worth having.

From a conversation to a full lesson, make the information in the video easier to search, check and use again.

Video to text workspace

Watch the video, and get a readable transcript first.

Speech in the video is arranged into text line by line, so browsing the content does not mean dragging the playhead back and forth. The transcript helps you understand the material faster, but important passages are still worth replaying to confirm.

  • Generate a transcript from the speech in the video
  • Browse the content sentence by sentence
  • Keep the original wording for checking
Text locating a clip in the video

From a line of text back to the moment.

Text and video timing are linked. Click what you need to verify and go back to the original footage to check the speaker, the tone and the surrounding context before deciding how to use it.

  • Jump straight to the matching clip
  • Judge the wording in context
  • Replay important information to check it
A proofread transcript and the workflow that follows

A transcript is not only for reading; it can carry the work forward.

Once the content is tidied up and proofread, the text can be the starting point for editing and captions. Transcripts and summaries each have their use, so keep the original wording when quoting and do not treat a summary as what was actually said.

  • Feed into text-based editing
  • Prepare text for captions
  • Check names, numbers and terminology

Three steps,
and the video content can be read.

From importing the material to checking the transcript, important information can always be confirmed in the video.

FAQ

About video to text, the recognition result and what comes next.

Languages, capacity and text delivery

Transcription supports all languages with no fixed single-file size, duration or batch-count limit. Review names, numbers and strong accents. These conditions apply to transcription, not generation models. Video transcripts retain timestamps. In AI chat, enter “Export the captions on the current timeline as an SRT/TXT file” to get the corresponding file.

Are transcription and captions the same?

Transcription focuses on text. Captions also require timing, segmentation and visual styling. A checked transcript is a useful starting point.

What about overlapping speakers?

Overlap makes recognition harder. Listen back to important passages and use a cleaner isolated recording when one is available.

What you can actually reuse from a video
is often the text inside it.
