How to Use the Video to Text Converter
STEP 1

Select a video from your device or paste a supported social media link into the video to text converter. Start with the recording you already have, whether it is a lecture, interview, meeting, or short clip.
STEP 2
Choose Your Transcription Settings
Choose your transcription mode and enable any options you need. Available settings depend on the type of recording and the level of detail you want.
STEP 3
Review and Download Your Results
Review your transcript in the video to text converter while playing the recording. Edit the wording and use Find & Replace to correct repeated terms. Download your transcript or subtitles, explore the AI tools, or share the result.
Convert YouTube, TikTok, and Other Videos to Text
Use the video to text converter with local recordings or supported online videos. Choose the source that fits your task without changing your transcription workflow.
Capture Words from TikTok and X
Convert spoken content from supported TikTok and X links into a readable transcript. Review a creator's explanation, collect research notes, or prepare a written version of your own clip.
Upload Saved Video Files
Upload MP4, MOV, or AVI recordings from your device. Turn a class recording into study material, a customer interview into research notes, or a recorded call into a reference for your team.
Customize Your Video Transcription
Adjust the video to text converter settings to handle difficult speech, speaker changes, and the details that matter to your work.
Use Advanced for Challenging Recordings
Choose Advanced for recordings with accents, background noise, or specialized discussions. Give the model additional context with Vocabulary Groups, then review uncertain passages against playback.
Separate Speakers in Conversations
Turn on Recognize Speakers to label different voices in interviews, panel discussions, and meetings. Follow each person's contribution without reading the entire conversation as one block of text.
Guide Recognition with Vocabulary Groups
Before converting video to text, add relevant names, product terms, acronyms, and industry vocabulary. Help the model recognize language specific to your recording and reduce repeated corrections during review.
Keep Audio Events or Clean Up Speech
Enable Keep Audio Events when sounds such as laughter or applause add useful context. Use Clean Up Speech to reduce fillers and repetitions in the transcript when you want a smoother reading experience.
