Convert Video to Text Online
Paste a video link from YouTube, Vimeo, or any platform — AI automatically extracts audio and transcribes the speech
Video-to-text transcription by link from any platform
Video-to-text transcription removes the need to rewatch a clip for a couple of phrases: just paste a link and the service extracts the audio track from the video and turns the speech into text. No downloading the clip, separating the audio, or converting formats — DictAI does it from the URL. Only the speech is taken from the video, the image isn't needed, so the result is a clean, readable transcript.
Over 1,000 platforms are supported: VK Video, Rutube, video hosts, educational sites, cloud drives with video files. If a clip is published publicly and contains speech, it can be transcribed. Some platforms (for example, YouTube videos) have dedicated flows, but the basic principle is the same: paste a link — get text with timestamps and speaker labels if several people speak on screen.
The finished transcript is edited in the browser and exported to TXT, DOCX, PDF, and to SRT and VTT with timestamps for subtitles. Recognition works in 35+ languages, and for long clips an AI summary of the key points is available. This is handy for turning an interview or a talk into an article, building notes from an educational video, or quoting a speaker word for word.
Transcription accuracy depends on the audio quality of the clip: clean speech is recognized almost word for word, music inserts and noise less so — such spots are fixed in the editor. If a clip is unavailable in our server's region, download it and upload the file directly. The first 30 minutes are free, with no card required.
