Podcast transcripts with timestamps
Upload audio and get timestamped text when timestamps are included, then scan, quote, copy, and use the result for show notes or accessibility. Podcast transcripts become easier to revisit.
Searchable episode text
Podcast transcripts turn an uploaded episode into readable text, letting you scan a passage, search for a phrase, and quote the exact wording without replaying the audio. The generated result keeps the spoken content available in a form you can revisit.
Timestamps for reference
Timestamp support connects selected lines with their place in the recording when timestamps are included. Podcast transcripts become easier to check against the audio, which helps creators prepare notes and readers return to a specific moment.
Copy-ready transcript
Podcast transcripts can be copied for show notes, while “podcast transcript ai free” describes the free-preview intent many users have. After the preview, you can decide whether full podcast transcripts fit the file and its credit budget.
From audio file to readable transcript
Upload an episode, wait for transcription, and move from spoken audio to text you can read and reuse.
How to transcribe an episode
1
Upload audio
Choose one MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, or another accepted audio file. The tool accepts one audio file at a time.
2
Start transcription
Select Transcribe audio to begin. Podcast transcripts are generated from the uploaded file, with the job status shown while the tool listens.
3
Review the result
Read the returned text, check the passages you need, and use timestamps when they are included in your result. No manual typing is required.
4
Copy or download
Search or scan the text, copy a passage, or download .txt. Podcast transcripts stay ready for quoting, notes, and accessibility work after processing.
Read without replaying
An uploaded episode becomes a text view that is easier to scan because podcast transcripts turn spoken audio into readable words you can quote without replaying the same section.
Return to key passages
For a specific name, idea, or passage, podcast transcripts are easier to revisit than another full listen.
Reference timestamps
When Pro timestamp output is available, podcast transcripts include time markers that connect a written line with its place in the episode.
Upload common formats
Upload MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, and other audio accepted by the uploader.
Preview before processing
This podcast transcription workflow offers a free preview before paid processing; credit use is 4 credits per minute, rounded up to a whole minute.
Know the limits
The output can be copied or downloaded as .txt, but podcast transcripts do not pull episodes from podcast-app links or promise speaker labels.
Small details that help
A clear text result makes important lines easier to find and reuse.
