Good to know
The converter uses live browser speech recognition, so it transcribes microphone audio rather than uploaded files. This site does not store your transcript or upload files, but speech recognition is handled by your browser, and some browsers send microphone audio to their own speech service.
Frequently asked questions
How do I download the transcript?
Press Stop, then use the Download button to save the text in the box as a plain TXT file on your device.
Can it convert an existing recording?
Only by playing it for the microphone to hear; browser recognition cannot read an audio file directly.
Is the transcript uploaded?
No. The text is saved locally when you download it; the browser may still send live audio to its speech service during recognition.
