Speech-to-text · language auto-detect · your file is processed privately
Video transcription that actually reads clean
Upload a video or audio file and get an accurate, readable transcript you can copy, edit and export. No typing, no scrubbing back and forth — the AI listens once and writes it all down, so you start from real text instead of a blank page.

Example transcript
[00:00] Welcome to VidSnappy. [00:03] This is an example of what your transcript will look like — each sentence on its own line, with timestamps. [00:10] Upload your video below to get started.
From spoken words to editable text
Point it at a talking-head clip, an interview, a lecture, a podcast export or a screen recording. The model transcribes the speech, detects the language automatically, and hands back plain text you can paste straight into a document, a caption file or a blog post. Long recordings that would take an afternoon to type out come back as clean copy you can skim, search and quote in a fraction of the time.
Accurate enough to publish from
Instead of guessing at what someone said, you start from a real transcript and only fix the odd name or acronym. That turns an hour of manual typing into a few minutes of light editing — and gives you a base you can repurpose into subtitles, show notes or an article. The transcript is punctuated and broken into readable sentences, not a raw stream of lowercase words, so it is genuinely usable the moment it lands.
Private until you run it
When you drop a file in, it previews locally in your browser so you can check you picked the right one before anything happens. Running the transcription is the only step that sends the audio off to be processed, and that step is where the login and the 2 credits cost apply. If a run ever fails, the credits are released — you are only charged for a transcript you actually get back.
From speech to text, in a few steps
Upload a file, run the AI once, and get a clean, readable transcript you can copy, edit and export.
How to transcribe a video
Step 1
Upload your file
Drag in a video or audio file, or click to choose one. It previews privately in your browser while you get set up.
Step 2
Sign in to run
Running the AI uses 2 credits, so we ask for a free account first and bring you right back to this page.
Step 3
Let the AI listen
The model transcribes the speech and detects the language automatically — no settings to fuss with, no manual scrubbing.
Step 4
Copy or download
Read the transcript on the right, copy it to your clipboard, or download it as a .txt file to use anywhere.
One clean pass
The audio is transcribed in a single pass and returned as continuous, readable text.
You get punctuated sentences, not a wall of fragments you have to stitch together by hand.
Language on autopilot
The language is detected for you, so an English interview and a Spanish lecture both just work.
There is no menu to hunt through before you can start.
Built for reuse
A transcript is the raw material for subtitles, summaries, quotes and articles.
Get it once and reuse it everywhere your content lives.
Fair, visible pricing
Each run costs 2 credits and the cost is shown on the button before you commit.
If a run fails, you are not charged a thing.
Nothing to install
It runs in your browser on any machine — no desktop app, no plugin, no upload queue to manage.
Timed under the hood
Word-level timing is captured during transcription, which is exactly what you need when you turn the text into subtitles later.
