Audio to text

Turn a voice message, interview, lecture or podcast into text. The speech recognition runs in your browser, so the recording never leaves your device.

How it works

  1. Open your audio file.
  2. Choose the spoken language. Use the yellow handles if you only want part of it.
  3. Click "Transcribe". The text appears below while Cutwisp works. Save it as TXT or copy it.

Questions and answers

How accurate is the text?

With clear speech, most of the text is right. Music, noise, strong accents and several people talking at once lead to more mistakes. Read the text through before you use it.

Which files work?

MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG, OPUS and FLAC, and the sound from video files. Voice messages from messengers are usually OGG or OPUS files.

Does Cutwisp tell speakers apart?

No. The text comes out as one flow, without the names of the speakers.

Does it work with long recordings?

Yes. Cutwisp works through the recording in pieces of up to 30 seconds and shows the text as it goes. Keep the browser tab open until it is done.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Cutwisp processes the file inside your browser. It is never sent to a server.

Does it cost anything? Is there a watermark?

Cutwisp is free, and it doesn't add a watermark.
