Extract audio when the video makes it hard
If you can upload a clean video directly, the Video to Text tool does the job in one pass. Extract-audio-first is the better path when the footage itself gets in the way of accurate transcription.
🔊 Noisy or music-heavy video
Isolate the voice track first, then transcribe — the transcript stays readable even with a loud background.
🎙️ Separate audio track
Already have a meeting WAV or extracted voice file? Upload it directly and skip re-processing the video container — faster turnaround.
🌍 Multi-language footage
Transcribe the isolated speech in 100+ source languages with auto-detect, then translate when needed.
🧹 Pre-cleaned input
Pair extraction with noise removal or voice isolation so the model gets the clearest possible audio.
🎙️ Multi-speaker content
Speaker labels are free on every plan, labeling each person once the speech is cleanly separated.
📑 Searchable archives
Turn old video libraries into searchable, captioned text without keeping the heavy media files.
