Does this audio to text tool upload my recordings to a server?

No. This audio to text tool runs in your browser and uses local speech recognition APIs where available. Your audio plays locally and the transcript is kept in your browser session.

Can I upload audio or video files for transcription?

Yes. You can upload audio or video and play it back while your browser listens through the microphone. On some setups you can route system audio into the mic input for clearer results.

Does it support multiple speakers?

Yes. You can add speakers (Person #1, Person #2, etc.), switch the active speaker while recording, and keep your transcript organized in script-style blocks. You can also edit speaker names later.

What browsers work best for this audio to text tool?

For the best experience, use a recent version of Chrome or Microsoft Edge on desktop. Other browsers may work, but some do not expose the Web Speech API needed for live speech recognition.

Audio to Text – Local Speech Recognition & Speaker Script

Turn spoken audio into a clean, editable script-style transcript directly in your browser. Record with your mic or upload audio/video files and play them back while your browser’s local speech recognition converts speech to text. Organize by speakers, infer names from context, search, and export – no external servers.

Why this audio to text tool stands out

Local speech recognition: Uses built-in browser APIs where supported – no external AI or servers.

Multi-speaker ready: Quickly add speakers (Person #1, Person #2…) and switch between them while recording.
Name hints: After transcription, the tool searches for phrases like “my name is…” to suggest speaker names.
Mobile friendly: Optimized layout and large touch targets for phones and tablets.
Export focused: Copy to clipboard, download as text, or save as JSON with speaker labels.
